Open Call Artists on Working at The Shed

Launched as part of The Shed’s inaugural year program, “Open Call” is a large-scale commissioning program for early-career NYC-based artists. For the first iteration of “Open Call,” 52 artists and collectives selected in 2018 were commissioned to present boundary-pushing new work beginning in May 2019. The presentation of work by some artists was postponed due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Some presented their work in 2021, and the remaining artists will present in 2022 along with the artists selected in 2020.
