We would like to congratulate the curators Marcela Guerrero and Drew Sawyer for their new roles as the 2026 Whitney Biennial curators at the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York.
Guerrero joined the Whitney in 2017 as an Assistant Curator. She was responsible for organizing no existe un mundo poshuracán: Puerto Rican Art in the Wake of Hurricane Maria, a critically acclaimed 2022 exhibition that was the first major museum survey of Puerto Rican art in 50 years. In late 2022, the Whitney promoted Guerrero to a senior curator role, the first Latino in such a role at the institution.
Sawyer, the Whitney’s photography curator, came to the museum last May from the Brooklyn Museum.
