Meet us for two public programming weekends, October 18th and 19th, and November 8th and 9th from 11:00AM - 5:00PM, where faculty, alumni, and special guests will be staged in moments of confrontation and intimacy, towards possibilities of surrender. Events include artist talks, theoretical lectures, discursive panels, performances, readings, curatorial walkthroughs, and discussion on artworks timely and timeless.

Poetic oracular interventions by Carribean Fragoza, Muriel Leung, Matias Viegener, Brian Evenson, Gabrielle Civil, Kini Sosa (Critical Studies, 2024), and Rowland Smith III (Critical Studies, 2024). Chimerical sounds by Stanley Zappa (Critical Studies, 2025).

The annual CalArts postgrad show is intended to provide context and visibility for recent graduates, as well as an opportunity to connect and to share their work with the larger Los Angeles art community. Previous iterations of the exhibition have been organized by Malik Gaines, Meghan Gordon, Sarah Lehrer-Graiwer, Andrew McNeely, Audrey Min, Catherine Taft, and Aurora Tang, among other notable curators.
