Counterpublic has named the 47 artists and collectives that will take part in the triennial’s upcoming third edition, scheduled to run September 12–December 12 in St. Louis, Missouri. In February, the five-person curatorial team—Jordan Carter, Raphael Fonseca, Stefanie Hessler, Nora N. Khan, and Wanda Nanibush—announced that their exhibition would be titled “Coyote Time,” which takes its name from a commission by Alice Bucknell. In a statement, the curators said that the list features “artists working across material practice, time-based media, and emergent technologies” who together “address contested questions of our historical moment around the terms of civic life, displacement, ecological crisis, and the accelerating entanglements of computation and lived experience.” Related Articles Counterpublic Triennial's 2026 Edition to Take Theme of 'Coyote Time' The Artist Whose Shimmering Obelisks Are Cropping Up All Over the World Bucknell will be joined by several high-profile artists including Glenn Ligon, Rirkrit Tiravanija, Ryan Trecartin and Lizzie Fitch, Petrit Halilaj, Rebecca Belmore, Tom Burr, Tony Cokes, Nicholas Galanin, and Max Hooper Schneider. Two deceased artists will also have their work on view as part of the triennial: painter Juanita McNeely, who died in 2023, and Benjamin Patterson, a founding member of Fluxus who died in 2016. A number of the artists showing in Counterpublic are also participating in other major biennials this year. The Whitney Biennial includes Cooper Jacoby, Malcolm Peacock, Margaret Honda, and Ali Eyal, who also featured in last year’s Made in L.A. biennial. Guadalupe Rosales and Carolina Caycedo will be showing in the Venice Biennale next month, while Li Yi-Fan will exhibit at the Carnegie International. Additionally, as part of an institution collaboration with Counterpublic, Frieze New York, running in May, will host an installation and performance by Kite. Ligon and Belmore’s commissions will serve as anchors on opposite ends of the Mississippi Riverfront, which will host more than a dozen works. Another major site for the triennial is The Ville, a historically Black neighborhood in the city’s north, which will feature works by Cokes, Honda, Dail Chambers, the People’s Art and Recreation Center, and Timmy Simmonds, who has made a series that looks at the history of the local Sumner High School. “The Coyote Time artist list is decidedly diasporic in scope, reflecting a global outlook while remaining rooted in St. Louis at a moment marked by renewed borders and divisions,” James McAnally, Counterpublic’s executive and artistic director, said in a statement. “Artists and collectives are drawn equally from the exhibition’s immediate neighborhoods and the Global South, bringing multilingual and multifaceted perspectives to questions of civic structures, migration, identity, and technology. Across nearly fifty commissions, Coyote Time takes a speculative and socially oriented approach to the moment.” The full artist list follows below.
