Regine Basha

Bio

Regine Basha is a curator, writer, consultant, and—currently—the Residency Director at Pioneer Works, a Brooklyn-based cultural center dedicated to creative experimentation across disciplines. For Basha, no two projects are alike—her approach considers the specific context of a situation to inform the production of, or engagement with, contemporary artwork. In the past, she’s advised The Museum of Art and Design, The Queens Museum, Creative Capital, Sculpture Center, Art in General, and Columbia University MFA Thesis Students. She also sits on the board of Art Matters, The SETI Artist in Residency program, and The Shandaken Project. In this interview, she discusses how she came to be a curator, how she’s learned to practice the skill of time management, and recalls the main pieces of advice she finds herself continually giving artists.
