extremely honored for Danko Steiner to be the 2025 Thinker in Residence at the Felix Gonzalez-Torres Foundation.<br /> <br /> The Thinker in Residence will act as an ambassador of Felix Gonzalez-Torres’s open-ended and rigorous way of thinking. The intention is for Gonzalez-Torres to function as a significant filter in the consciousness and actions of the Thinker in Residence, throughout the time they hold this role. This may or may not yield any formal documentation or byproducts. Individuals assuming the role of Thinker in Residence may occupy the role for one year or longer, but the term is not fixed. </p> <p>Previous Thinkers in Residence:<br /> Joshua Chambers-Letson, 2023-2024<br /> David Breslin, 2021-2022</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="clearfix"></div> </div> </section> </section> </div> <footer class="divider show4col"><span class="container clearfix"><div class='divider'></div><div class='footer-cols'><div class="footer-col1"><p>The Felix Gonzalez-Torres Foundation<br /> 544 West 24th Street <br /> New York, NY 10011</p></div><div class="footer-col2"><p>General Inquiries<br /><a href="mailto:info@felixgonzalez-torresfoundation.org">info@felixgonzalez-torresfoundation.org</a><br /> tel: 212.414.4242</p></div><div class="footer-col3"><p><a href="/selected-monographs-and-solo-catalogues/terms-and-conditions-of-website-use">Terms and Conditions of Website Use</a></p></div><div class="footer-col4"><p>© 2002-2025 Felix Gonzalez-Torres Foundation</p></div></div></span></footer> <a id="backToTop" href="#top" >Back To Top</a> </body> </html>
