Christopher Y. Lew is Chief Artistic Director at Horizon Art Foundation and Outland Art. He has over fifteen years of experience working at American museums and arts nonprofits. He is a former curator at the Whitney Museum of American Art where he oversaw the emerging artist program and was co-curator of the 2017 Whitney Biennial. At the Whitney, he organized Pope.L: Choir (2019), Kevin Beasley: A view of a landscape (2018), and mounted the first US solo exhibitions for several artists. Prior to joining the Whitney, he was assistant curator at MoMA PS1. Lew has contributed to publications including Art AsiaPacific, Art Journal, Bomb, Huffington Post, and Mousse.

He and Zuckerman discuss art as a window into another world, spending time with things we don’t yet understand, being entrepreneurial, doing curatorial work in museums, being a parent, NFTs, transformational invitations, slowing down, and why should anyone care.
