2026 ARTISTS

AURORA Biennial 2026: States of Becoming brings together 27 local, national, and international artists exploring the intersections of contemporary art, technology, and society.

Through immersive installations, moving image, sound, performance, and experimental new media, participating artists explore transformation, shifting identities, and the forces shaping our world.

The Biennial includes an exhibition of two works by Monira Al Qadiri at Dallas Contemporary (November 4–December 6) and performances by Eva Papamargariti at the same venue (November 19–21).

On November 21, the AURORA Biennial's signature public art exhibition features works by 25 artists at Dallas City Hall, the J. Erik Jonsson Central Library, and the AT&T Discovery District, from 7 pm–1 am.
