how top curators spot the artists of tomorrow 2661383

Artnet News spoke to seven leading curators about how they identify emerging artists who will become the next big names. The curators, including Amy Smith-Stewart of The Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum and iLiana Fokianaki of Kunsthalle Bern, describe their methods: seeking artists who address erased histories, geopolitical contexts, and marginalized perspectives. The article also references a recent debate sparked by Dean Kissick's polemic 'The Painted Protest' in Harper's, which criticized contemporary art for being overly dictated by identity politics, a view countered by curators who affirm their commitment to socially engaged work.

Liverpool Biennial 2025 digs deep into its city’s foundations with ‘Bedrock’ theme

The 13th edition of the Liverpool Biennial, titled 'Bedrock,' will run from June 7 to September 14, 2025, across 18 venues in the UK's largest city-wide contemporary art festival. Curated by Marie-Anne McQuay, the exhibition brings together 30 international artists and collectives with 22 new commissions, placing works in galleries, libraries, cathedrals, shopfronts, and public squares. The theme explores Liverpool's literal sandstone foundations as a metaphor for its layered histories—colonial empire, industry, civic resilience, and community life. Notable works include Amber Akaunu's film 'Dear Othermother' at Bluecoat, Linda Lamignan's triptych at FACT Liverpool, and Dawit L. Petros's installation at Liverpool Central Library.
