The book launch of a new artist monograph by Vuslat, published by Distanz, centered on the concept of Emanet—a layered notion of trust, care, guardianship, and entrusted memory knowledge. Vuslat will be in conversation with Eric Shiner, President of Powerhouse Arts, for an evening exploring the ideas and processes behind the publication.

Grounded in shared cultural histories and local networks, La Vaughn Belle, Danny Báez, Christopher Cozier, and Daniela Fifi come together with moderator Tiana Webb-Evans to explore how community-led initiatives create space for new voices, material practices, and forms of artistic freedom in the Caribbean.

Centering access, equity, and knowledge-building, the conversation with Dana Farouki, Komal Shah, Jasmine Wahi, and Noah Horowitz, moderated by Gabriela Palmieri, explores how those with power in the art world can meaningfully support artists working across borders while challenging exclusionary systems.

The Gochman Family Collection (GFC) mission is to expand and deepen the global understanding of contemporary Native art. The Collection supports and promotes artists whose practices critically engage with colonial worldviews and challenge dominant historical narratives.

CONDUCTOR VIPs are invited to a walkthrough of Naufus Ramírez-Figueroa: Lugar de Consuelo (Place of Solace), led by Inés Katzenstein, Curator of Latin American Art and Director of the Patricia Phelps de Cisneros Research Institute for the Study of Art from Latin America.
