Contemporary Curation with Leah Triplett

Leah Triplett is a curator and writer, currently serving as the Director of Exhibitions and Contemporary Curatorial Initiatives at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts (PAFA). Her writing has appeared in ArtAsiaPacific, ArtNet News, Sculpture, Public Art Dialogue, Flash Art, Hyperallergic, The Brooklyn Rail, and others. As an independent curator, she has organized projects for Abigail Ogilvy Gallery, Boston University Art Galleries, Praise Shadows Art Gallery, and others. She taught critical writing in the painting and sculpture MFA programs at Boston University from 2021 to 2023. She is the 2024 Mary Ann Unger Estate Fellow, researching the artist’s late 1970s and early 1980s works.

"As a curator and writer, I consider the convergence of craft, performance, new media, materiality, and globalism, using Feminist theory as a framework for my exhibition-making and publishing projects."
