Marilyn Boror Bor (Guatemala, 1984) is an artist, independent curator, lecturer, and Maya-Kaqchikel cultural manager. Recognized for her socially engaged practice, she works on identity, memory, colonialism, and cultural resistance. She has participated in biennials such as the Aichi Triennale (Japan), the Leandre Cristòfol Biennial (Barcelona), the São Paulo Biennial, the Bienal Sur, and the Bienal de Arte Paiz. Her work has been exhibited across Latin America, Europe, Asia, and North America, and is part of collections like the Reina Sofía Museum, the Salvador Allende Museum of Solidarity, and the Museum of Contemporary Art of Panama. She has held residencies at Hangar Barcelona, FAARA Uruguay, ARTE-UNAM, and Espira/Espora, and has given lectures at institutions such as Cornell University and the ICA Virginia. In 2023, Phaidon recognized her as one of the world’s most innovative contemporary artists. 

An endowment established in 1983 through the generosity of Nancy and Robin Hanes supports the Art Department's Visiting Artist Series. This important program brings both established and emerging artists to campus to discuss their work in public lectures and to offer individual critiques to our M.F.A. students.  The Hanes Visiting Artist series greatly enriches both our academic programs and our outreach to the wider community.  All lectures are free and open to the public.

A weeknight or daytime permit is now required after 5:00 pm on weekdays. No permit is required from 5:00 pm Friday through 7:30 am Monday. A $1.00 one-night pass is available in selected lots. More information can be found HERE.
