I’m interested in spaces on Instagram where curation matters. Images fly by at great speed, liked, admired, but fleeting nonetheless. Curating some of the art on IG gives us a chance to pause, to look again. Manuel Guzmán at @b_white_canvas creates a space to explore a world of endless creativity. Discover thousands of artists in his curated highlights galleries, curated visual art paired with Manuel’s original music, presented in fast-moving, immersive slideshows. Each gallery is numbered, and as of today, we are at G-25. Originally from Chile and now based in Dubai, Manuel Guzmán pairs all forms of art from traditional to AI. I’ve been featured in his galleries a few times as both @perfectagala and @elizadesignai, and I really enjoy exploring all the incredible art he curates.

I really appreciate that AI art is included alongside traditional works, rather than being siloed or separated as it so often is elsewhere. This week, I’m featuring three of Manuel’s galleries. I’d share more, but it’s quite time-consuming to find each piece and ensure every artist is properly credited. Art that falls under AI—or where the medium isn’t clearly defined—is marked in red.

In this issue, I’m posting work from the galleries G22 and G23.

Meet Manuel Guzmán, musician and curator. In his own words. Plus links to his music on soundcloud.
