Taking AIM: 30-Year Anniversary Exhibition
Guest curators Marysol Nieves and Monica Espinel
For three decades, the Artist in the Marketplace (AIM) program has helped to demystify the often opaque professional practices of the art world for artists at the beginning of their careers and has introduced their work to the public. Taking AIM! 30-Year Anniversary Exhibition features archival material documenting the evolution of the AIM program over the years.

Urban Archives: Emilio Sanchez in the Bronx
