Vignette Art Fair 2023 Curator
Emily Edwards
Emily Edwards is the Associate Curator at Dallas Contemporary. While there, she has curated solo exhibitions of artists Gabrielle Goliath, Natalie Wadlington, Shilpa Gupta, Ariel Rene Jackson, and Margarita Cabrera and assisted over thirty exhibitions. She is currently working on presentations of artists Bianca Bondi and Chloe Chiasson to open in the fall of 2023. Edwards is the recipient of a 2023 ICI Étant Donnés Contemporary Art Curatorial Fellowship. She has served as a juror for the Hopper Prize and South Arts Prize. Prior to Dallas, she worked on the curatorial team at the 9/11 Memorial Museum. Her practice is dedicated to working with historically underrepresented artists whose work reflects both the surrounding communities and contemporary times. She graduated with a BFA with Honors in Art History from the University of Texas at Austin and an MA in Art History and Museum Studies from Georgetown University.
I am tremendously honored to serve as curator and juror for the 2023 Vignette Art Fair. Since its inception, Vignette's unflappable dedication to supporting women and female-identifying artists has served as a lodestar for my own curatorial practice. I look forward to surveying the breadth of artistic talent in Texas in the coming months.
