James Casebere ’76 is the subject of a landmark exhibition titled The Spatial Unconscious at the Williamsburg Biannual.

Spanning over four decades of Casebere’s influential career, the exhibition features rarely seen works across media—including early black-and-white photographs, vibrant recent color images, working Polaroids, waterless lithographs, and newly debuted sculptures. Many of the pieces have never been shown in New York before.

A key figure in the Pictures Generation, Casebere is celebrated for his distinctive use of constructed architectural models, photographed to explore space, memory, and the psychology of place.

September 25, 2025–January 17, 2026

Land Acknowledgement

The Minneapolis College of Art and Design (MCAD) acknowledges it is located on traditional, ancestral, and contemporary lands of Indigenous people. This is the ancestral homeland of the Dakota and Ojibwe people, who were forcibly exiled from the land because of aggressive and persistent settler colonialism. We recognize that this place has a complex and layered history. As a community dedicated to creativity, MCAD is committed to ongoing efforts to support and advocate for American Indian Nations and peoples.
