Maya Juracán is an activist and troublemaker whose work focuses on communal forms of curatorship. She is the Chief Curator of the Bienal en Resistencia, Co-curator of the 21st Paiz Art Biennial, Más allá (2018), and directs the Paiz Foundation’s art collection. She is part of the curatorial network of Casa de la Memoria (CALDH).
