Seph Rodney, PhD is a regular contributor to The New York Times, and a former senior critic and opinions editor for Hyperallergic. He has also written on art for CNN, NBC, Art in America, Art Forum, The Guardian, and several other publications. In 2020 he won the Rabkin Arts Journalism prize and in 2022 won the Andy Warhol Foundation Arts Writers Grant. He is also a curator of contemporary art exhibitions, including co-curating Get in the Game, the largest show that the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art has undertaken, which opened October 2024 and will travel to other venues.

Andrew Lyght’s works combine drawing, painting, sculpture, and installation art. Through matching industrial elements with vibrant colors and smooth geometric shapes, Lyght transforms hard-edge, functional construction objects into artworks that are graceful and lyrical.

The work of Nigerian-American artist Osi Audu focuses on the dualism of form and void, the tangible and intangible. Audu is a recipient of the 2020 New York Foundation for the Arts award (NYSCA/ NYFA Artist Fellowship); Pollock-Krasner Foundation grant 2018/2019; a Wellcome Trust Commission and purchase award, 2002; and a South East Arts Grant for a Mural, Maidstone, England, UK, 1997, among other awards.
