The 2024 Guggenheim Fellowship recipients have been announced, and we are thrilled to share that our gallery artists Arthur Ou and Dylan Hausthor are fellows in the creative arts (photography). Selected from a competitive pool of nearly 3,000 applicants through a rigorous application and peer review process, the Class of 2024 Guggenheim Fellows were chosen based on their prior career achievements and exceptional promise.

At UP Gallery, we take immense pride in the recognition of Ou and Hausthor’s talent and dedication to their craft. Currently, Ou’s solo exhibition “圖中圖” is still on display at our gallery space. We extend a warm invitation to visit the gallery and experience his remarkable works firsthand. We wholeheartedly congratulate Arthur Ou and Dylan Hausthor for their remarkable achievements.
