    Arthouse at the Jones Center is pleased to announce a free public lecture by Gary Carrion-Murayari, Associate Curator of this year’s edition of the Whitney Biennial, organized the the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York. The Arthouse Visiting Lecturer Series brings internationally-renowned contemporary art curators, directors, and arts professionals from around the country to Austin to present free public lectures and conduct studio visits with Austin-area artists.

    Recently named one of  The New York Times Style Magazine’s “Nifty 50,” Gary Carrion-Murayari has experienced a meteoric rise to prominence in the international contemporary art world. Having worked in the curatorial department at the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York since 2003, specializing in contemporary art, film, and video, Carrion-Murayari was tapped to team up with guest curator Francesco Bonami to serve as Associate Curator of the 2010 Whitney Biennial. The Whitney Biennial is known for launching the careers of many young artists and defining the leading trends in the contemporary art world. That Carrion-Murayari was chosen to contribute to the signature exhibition alongside the seasoned voice of Bonami is a significant achievement for the young professional.
