In this lecture, learn more about what it takes to research, plan, and create major contemporary art exhibitions through Onli’s personal experience co-curating the 2024 Whitney Biennial with Chrissie Iles, a curator at the museum. The presentation includes insights into upcoming shows as Onli looks ahead to cocurating the museum’s 2026 Roy Lichtenstein retrospective with artist Alex Da Corte and Whitney Museum of American Art director Scott Rothkopf. This will be Lichtenstein’s first New York retrospective in more than 30 years.
Onli will also speak about her writing, which focuses on the future of contemporary art, language, power structures, and race. A Q&A follows the conversation. The event is free and open to the public; please register for the event for a free ticket.
