2024 Border Biennial
2024 Border Biennial
December 15, 2023 - April 14, 2024

Woody and Gayle Hunt Family Gallery

The 2024 Border Biennial / Bienal Fronteriza 2024 will focus on the unique identity of the borderland, which includes a diversity of experiences. The exhibition will explore how the definition of “the border,” has helped shape artists’ artistic practice and make up who they are, including their history, gender, culture, race, sexuality, etc. Engaging programming and a publication capturing the show will accompany the exhibition. While the artworks in the Border Biennial focus on the United States / Mexico border, the exhibition provides an opportunity to reflect on borders and their conditions worldwide.

The open call is currently open and closes July 30, 2023 at 11:59pm MST. For guidelines and more information on how to apply click here
