Curator and researcher Yina Jiménez Suriel obtained her master’s degree in history of art and visual culture, with a focus on visual studies, from the Universitat de València. She has collaborated with museums, galleries and cultural centers worldwide, including Casa Quien and Centro León in the Dominican Republic, Kulturstiftung Basel H. Geiger in Basel, Switzerland, and Museo de Arte Moderno de Medellín in Colombia. She has been invited to seminars, workshops, and conferences at numerous institutions, including Centro de Fotografía de Montevideo in Uruguay, Universidad Autónoma de Madrid in Spain, Universidad de los Andes in Colombia, and Institut Kunst at FHNW Academy of Art and Design in Switzerland. She has written in media such as Arquitexto and Terremoto and is a contributor to Contemporary And magazine. She lives in the Dominican Republic. The lecture is presented as part of the Curatorial Minds Lab, a new initiative of the Hamon Arts Library’s Hawn Gallery and the Pollock Gallery at SMU that gives five Fellows – made up of alumni and current students – an opportunity to deepen their understanding of the historical development of curatorial practices and study contemporary art display theory and practice.
