Hello, ’05ers! Some news from classmates:

Andréas Ibrahim is part of a collective of artists and curators from Palestine and Gaza that have organized the Gaza Biennale. It is an exceptional event, reinventing the rules of art exhibition and production. It is also a challenge to art institutions worldwide to partner with the Biennale, to present work that engages with the forefront of our collective experience. The project has already received attention all over the world and was reported on by The Guardian, Hyperallergic, Artnet, and many more news outlets. For more information, please email info@gazabiennale.org.

Rachel Schreiber and her husband welcomed their first son, Bailey, into the world in June 2024. He is giggly and curious and has his parents wrapped around his tiny finger. The family lives in Washington, D.C., where Rachel is a fundraiser for the local Planned Parenthood.

Ben Shestakofsky’s book, Behind the Startup: How Venture Capital Shapes Work, Innovation, and Inequality,has been published by the University of California Press. The book has been reviewed in The New York Times and Los Angeles Review of Books.
