Curator Talks: Rosario Güiraldes

Curatorial approaches to contemporary art take center stage in a conversation with Rosario Güiraldes at Locust Projects. Taking place Wednesday, October 14, the program is part of the returning Curator Talks series, which brings emerging and established curators to Miami to discuss their practices, influences and approaches to supporting artists. Each visiting curator also participates in studio visits with Miami-based artists, creating opportunities for direct exchange with the local creative community.

Güiraldes is Curator of Visual Arts at the Walker Art Center, where recent projects include the group exhibition Ways of Knowing and Walter Price: Pearl Lines. Her work spans contemporary and historical exhibitions across the United States, Europe and Latin America, with a forthcoming 2027 retrospective devoted to Afro-Brazilian artist, intellectual and political leader Abdias Nascimento.

Before joining the Walker, Güiraldes served as a curator at The Drawing Center in New York, where she organized exhibitions including Drawing in the Continuous Present and The Pencil Is a Key: Drawings by Incarcerated Artists, along with solo presentations of artists such as Xiyadie, Fernanda Laguna, Ebecho Muslimova and Guo Fengyi. Presented by Vivant, the talk runs from 7 to 9 p.m.
