Brandee Caoba
Visual Arts Open Lecture Series: Brandee Caoba, Curator, SITE Santa Fe
The Banff Centre ~ Jeanne and Peter Lougheed Building 204
Join us for an afternoon with Brandee Caoba, artist, curator, writer, and cultural activist based in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
In this talk, Caoba reflects on her curatorial work at SITE Santa Fe, a contemporary art space known for its experimental programming. She offers a model for curating as a form of connection, catalyzing empathy across divides. Approaching exhibitions as porous and evolving structures shaped by dialogue, community, and time, Caoba considers how they can serve as sites of civic connection, social repair, grief, ceremony, resistance, and joy.
Caoba is a faculty member for Fall 2025 Banff Artist in Residence (BAiR), a transformative five-week residency that provides mentorship, critical feedback, and studio time to visual artists and curators at any stage of their career.
This event is part of the Visual Arts Open Lecture Series, which presents talks by leading Canadian and international artists, curators, and academics.
Visual Arts is supported by the Gail and Stephen A. Jarislowsky Outstanding Artist Program.
