At the 2026 @whitneymuseum Biennial, galleries hum with the sounds of insects, rooms smell of lemon grass, and the digital worlds blur the line between memory and art. Senior Curator Marcela Guerrero gives @LatinoUSA a guided tour of it all. bit.ly/lusawhitney

It's not every day that art gets inflated in the galleries. 🌬️ Pat Oleszko first began creating her "inflatables" in the early 1980s as a way to make large-scale sculptures without relying on the need for constructed, heavy armatures. This work titled Blowhard debuted as a 1995 commission for the World Trade Center Plaza, where strong winds nearly blew it away. The artist sews these sculptures in sections, which she then connects, unfurls, and inflates on her roof. Blowhard is on view in #WhitneyBiennial 2026 through August 23.

Nanibah Chacon’s sculptures in #WhitneyBiennial 2026 draw out the visual similarities between the sand paintings of Diné (Navajo) gods and electrical towers used by coal refineries on the Navajo Nation. After the Biennial closes, one of the sculptures will be installed on the land of the Navajo Nation.

@nytimes calls Kelly Akashi's #WhitneyBiennial 2026 sculpture "a monument to the need to move on, and the need to remember." Monument (Altadena) consists of a 13-foot-tall chimney and walkway made of glass brick. The work reflects on Akashi's personal experience of loss from the devastating 2025 wildfires in Southern California. After the artist's home and studio burned, the chimney was the only structure left standing. For the Biennial, she worked with a mason to rebuild it piece by piece, alongside a reconstruction of her home's walkway, in luminous glass brick. The sculpture will be on view to the public in this year's Biennial beginning Sunday, March 8, and Members on Wednesday, March 4. nytimes.com/2026/02/24/art…
