Serubiri Moses is a Ugandan curator, editor, and scholar based in New York City. He is known for his focus on global art history. He is primarily concerned with theories of art, and exhibition histories. His exhibitions are rooted in methods of collective teaching, listening and loitering, and works with the notion of artists who have been censored - "artists without art". His career between 2011 and 2017 consisted of travel for conferences, residencies and fellowships in Asia, Africa, Latin America and Europe. He most recently served as Adjunct Assistant Professor in Art History at Hunter College, CUNY, and visiting faculty at the Center for Curatorial Studies, Bard College. He previously held teaching positions at New York University and the New Centre for Research and Practice, Germany/United States; Dark Study, United States; Digital Earth Fellowship, Netherlands; and delivered lectures at Williams College, Massachusetts; Yale University, Connecticut; University of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; The New School and basis voor aktuelle kunst, Netherlands; College of the Atlantic, Maine; and University of the Arts Helsinki. As a curator, he has organized exhibitions at museums including MoMA PS1, Long Island City (2021); the Hessel Museum, Bard College, NY (2019); and KW Institute for Contemporary Art, Berlin (2018). He previously held a research fellowship at the University of Bayreuth, received his MA in Curatorial Studies at Bard College, and is an alumnus of the Àsìkò International Art Programme. He is Contributing Editor at e-flux journal, and his forthcoming book Judith Namala: A Novella is published by CARA.
