Opening September 14, 2024
Congratulations! The Body Politic: Long Island Biennial 2024, a juried exhibition featuring exceptional art from contemporary artists across Suffolk and Nassau Counties, has announced the final list of 2024 exhibiting artists. The Museum received 762 artwork submissions from 313 artists. This year, the applicants were tasked with submitting work that engaged with contemporary social, cultural, or political issues. The result is a compelling museum-wide exhibition that features 79 works of art accepted from 60 artists. The artists chosen represent the breadth of communities across Suffolk and Nassau counties stretching from Floral Park to Montauk.
Present throughout the Museum, the exhibition encompasses a remarkable variety of media, with styles spanning abstraction to hyperrealism. “We remain committed to sharing inspiring and thought-provoking new art with our visitors.” said Heather Arnet, Executive Director & CEO. “This edition of Long Island Biennial will resonate with the entire community given the diversity in artists and the universality of the important themes in their work.”
The jurors for the 2024 Long Island Biennial are Ian Alteveer, Beal Family Chair of the Department of Contemporary Art, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; Patricia Cronin, sculptor, Artistic Director of the LGBTQ+ VR Museum and Distinguished Professor of Art, Brooklyn College; and Grace Hong, Assistant Director, Galerie Lelong & Co.
