Whitelegg’s research focuses on the international circulation of Latin American art and history of relationships between artists and critics within Latin America and between Latin America, Europe and the United States. In 2018, she curated Signals: If you like I shall grow (with kurimanzutto at Thomas Dane, London), the first exhibition to remount original works of the gallery’s three founding artists, David Medalla, Gustav Metzger, and Marcello Salvadori, among other artists from Latin America including Venezuela and Brazil.
Signals London operated between 1964-1966, which Whitelegg posits “at the very crux between post-war attitudes and the dawning of new aesthetic and geo-political perspectives.
