Teréz Iacovino (b. New York, NY) is an artist, curator, and educator, who now serves as director of the Katherine E. Nash Gallery at the University of Minnesota. Her practice is continually shaped by the artists she works with, the students she mentors, and her experience as a Latina and first-generation graduate working in academia. She is co-editor of Vaiven: 21st-Century Art of Puerto Rico and Its Diaspora (University of Minnesota Press, 2025) and a contributor to Nuyorican and Diasporican Visual Art: A Critical Anthology (Duke University Press, 2025). Her curatorial work has been supported by The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, the National Endowment for the Arts, the Elizabeth Firestone Graham Foundation, the Jacques and Natasha Gelman Foundation, and the Harlan Boss Foundation for the Arts, among others. Her forthcoming essay, A Pedagogy of Hope: Pagán and Pietri in Nitza Tufiño’s Tenderete, will be included in the US Latinx Arts Forum's X as Intersection: Writing on Latinx Art, a digital publishing initiative that commissions and presents short-form essays focused on the recipients of the Latinx Artist Fellowship and the ideas that animate their practices.
