THE STORY, IN BRIEF

In Hyperallergic, Neil Price examines how the Toronto Biennial’s Things Fall Apart connects memory, movement and historical rupture. He highlights Dawoud Bey’s landscapes, Antonio Obá’s participatory installation and Raphaël Barontini’s tribute to Harriet Tubman. While finding individual works compelling, Price questions the exhibition’s cohesion and its assumption of a previously unified world. Allison Glenn curated the biennial, which continues through 20 December 2026.
