Dan Cameron is a New York-based curator, art writer, arts administrator, archivist and educator whose international career was launched with the 1986 exhibition Art and its Double at Fundació la Caixa in Barcelona. Today Cameron is perhaps best known for founding and administering Prospect New Orleans, the triennial art exhibition that began operations barely a year after Hurricane Katrina (2007 to 2011); and for his exhibition program as Senior Curator at the New Museum from 1995 to 2006. Dan was recently Artistic Director of Open Spaces, a citywide visual and performing arts festival that took place in Kansas City, Missouri, from August to October 2018, and a year prior served as guest curator of Kinesthesia: Latin American Kinetic Art 1954-1969 at Palm Springs Art Museum (2017), part of the Getty Foundation’s Pacific Standard Time initiative. Cameron was also Chief Curator at Orange County Museum of Art in Newport Beach, California from 2012 to 2015, and Curator of the 2016 Bienal de Cuenca in Ecuador. He most recently organized a retrospective survey of sculptor Leandro Erlich that is currently on view through October 2019 at MALBA in Buenos Aires.
