Alistair Hudson is the Director of Manchester Art Gallery and the Whitworth.
In his previous role as Director of Middlesbrough Institute of Modern Art (mima), Alistair’s vision for mima was based on the concept of the Useful Museum, as an institution dedicated to the promotion of art as a tool for education and social change.
