The in New York has announced that 75 artists have been selected to present work in the 2019 co-organized by two of the institution’s curators, Jane Panetta and Rujeko Hockley. This will be the 79th in the long-running series of exhibitions launched by Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney, who founded the museum in 1932.In a statement, Panetta said that she and Hockley were especially focused on emerging artists and first-time biennial participants, saying that approximately 75 percent of the artists are under 40 years old and that only five have appeared in past editions of the event.“In part, this emphasis resulted from what we saw during our research across the U.S.,” Panetta told the New York Times. “We were struck by the profound difficulties of our current moment and the ways in which so many artists we encountered are struggling and facing fewer opportunities to present their work publicly.”The exhibition will reportedly explore themes such as the mining of history in order to reimagine the present or future, a profound and sustained consideration of questions of equity along financial, racial, and sexual lines, a concern about climate change, and explorations of the vulnerability of the body.
