Dexter Dalwood: ‘If we want art history to change, we need to include artists in creating shows’
British artist Dexter Dalwood, known for his paintings of imagined interiors of famous figures like Kurt Cobain and Ludwig Wittgenstein, has taken on an unexpected role as co-curator of an exhibition at the National Gallery in London. The show, *José María Velasco: A View of Mexico*, runs until August 17 and highlights the 19th-century Mexican landscape painter, who documented industrialization and ecological change. Dalwood, who moved to Mexico in 2022 after a residency, brings his own artistic perspective to the curation, aiming to introduce Velasco to an international audience.
