About this Event
Since its founding in 2013, Locust Talks has become one of Miami's premier platforms for engagement with contemporary curatorial thinking. Now returning home to Locust Projects, CURATOR TALKS presents four curators per season — a mix of emerging and established voices — who share their curatorial vision and practice, the artists and ideas that fuel their work, and how they support artists across institutional and non-traditional contexts.
A defining feature of the CURATOR TALKS series is its commitment to meaningful local exchange: each visiting curator participates in studio visits with Miami-based artists, offering vital critical feedback and professional visibility to the city's creative community. This direct artist engagement remains central to the series' mission of broadening access to contemporary curatorial practice beyond major art centers.
Rosario Güiraldes is Curator of Visual Arts at the Walker Art Center. Born in Buenos Aires, she has over a decade of curatorial experience working across the United States, Europe, and Latin America. Recent exhibitions at the Walker include Ways of Knowing (2025), a thematic group exhibition featuring works by Anna Boghiguian, Petrit Halilaj, Sky Hopinka, and Gala Porras-Kim, among others, and Walter Price: Pearl Lines. In 2027, Güiraldes will organize the first U.S. retrospective of Afro-Brazilian artist, intellectual, and political leader Abdias Nascimento (Brazil, 1914–2011), supported by a Curatorial Research Fellowship from the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Arts. Prior to joining the Walker, she was a Curator at The Drawing Center (2017–2023), where she organized the contemporary drawing survey Drawing in the Continuous Present (2022); the historic exhibition The Pencil is A Key: Drawings by Incarcerated Artists (2019), and monographic exhibitions of Xiyadie, Fernanda Laguna, Ebecho Muslimova, and Guo Fengyi, among others.
