Meg Onli is the Nancy and Fred Poses Curator at The Whitney Museum of American Art, New York. Onli has worked as the Andrea B. Laporte Associate Curator at the Institute of Contemporary Art, Philadelphia, most recently as Director and Curator of The Underground Museum, Los Angeles. She has curated such exhibitions Speech/Acts (2017), Colored People Time: Mundane Features, Quotidian Pasts, Banal Presents (2019), and Ulysses Jenkins: Without Your Interpretation (2021) with Erin Christovale. She was appointed to curate the 2024 Whitney Biennial alongside Chrissie Iles.

This lecture is made possible by the Critical Conversations program, a partnership between the Ford Family Foundation and the University of Oregon Department of Art’s Center for Art Research (CFAR), to bring prominent curators and critics to Oregon to engage with artists statewide. This element of the program is a rotating collaboration with art organizations across the state to connect prominent national and international curators, critics, and writers with Oregon-based artists for in-depth studio visits.
