Meg Onli and Zack Winokur to Curate 2028 Whitney Biennial
Having co-curated the 2024 Biennial, Onli returns to the next edition with Winokur, who founded the American Modern Opera Company.
Meg Onli and Zack Winokur have been announced as the co-curators for the 2028 Whitney Biennial, the prestigious exhibition of American art. Scott Rothkopf, the museum's director, praised Meg's curatorial expertise, while noting Zack's influence across multiple artistic disciplines. The duo are set to usher in a "radical new vision" for the event, just two months after the 2026 Biennial and a month after a successful Lichtenstein retrospective co-curated by Meg.
This announcement follows unionized staff members averting a strike, securing better wages, parental leave, and safety measures. Having joined the Whitney as a curator-at-large in 2023, Meg has been instrumental in shaping recent exhibitions, including the highly praised 2024 Biennial. Meanwhile, Zack, a co-founder of the American Modern Opera Company, brings a wealth of experience in interdisciplinary performance art to the partnership. The 2028 Biennial, the 83rd edition of this landmark event, is scheduled to open in March 2028.
