Taraneh Fazeli

Taraneh Fazeli (she/her/they) is an Iranian-American curator and cultural organizer. For the first half of her career, she worked at NYC-based arts institutions such as Artforum, e-flux, Triple Canopy, and The New Museum before becoming an independent curator in 2016. Her work is rooted at the intersection of the disability, diasporic, queer, organizing, and creative communities she calls home. She received a Spring 2022 Andy Warhol Foundation Curatorial Fellowship towards the forthcoming field guide/book rooted in her recent peripatetic exhibition “Sick Time, Sleepy Time, Crip Time: Against Capitalism’s Temporal Bullying,” which addressed the politics of disability, health, race, and care (2016-20). She teaches at the City College of New York, lectures widely on ableism, time, accessibility, racial equity, and care, and has written for publications including Artforum, Art in America, Hyperallergic, and Flash Art.
