Hello, I am the subject of this article, so per WP:COI I am requesting these corrections and additions here rather than editing directly.
Corrections:
1. In the lead, please change "He lives and works in Brooklyn, New York and Berlin, Germany." to "He lives and works in Berlin, Germany and Sydney, Australia." I have not been based in Brooklyn for several years; I am currently a studio artist at Artspace, Sydney. Sources: my website (), my gallery biographies at max goelitz () and CIBRIÁN (), and the Artspace studio program page ().
2. Please update the future-tense sentence "In September 2024, Johnson will present his largest solo exhibition to date at the Rockbund Art Museum in Shanghai, China." to past tense: "In 2024, Johnson presented his largest solo exhibition to date, Best Synthetic Answer, at the Rockbund Art Museum in Shanghai, China." Source: Rockbund Art Museum exhibition page.
3. In the solo exhibitions list, the gallery name for Seven Whale Road is misspelled "Cibrán" — the correct name is "CIBRIÁN". Source: gallery website.
4. I received my MFA from Bard College in 2019, not 2018 as currently stated. Source: my CV ().
5. The virtual reality e-book is titled Meet in the Corner (not "Meet Me in the Corner"). Source: publisher's page () and my CV ().
6. Regarding teaching: the sentence "has lectured on art and theory at Bruce High Quality Foundation University, Princeton, UdK Berlin and UCLA" is outdated. Please update to reflect that I am Professor and Associate Co-Chair of Painting at the Milton Avery Graduate School of the Arts at Bard College, and have taught at Harvard University, UCLA, and Princeton University. Source: my Bard faculty biography ().

Images:
14. I have uploaded the following photographs to Wikimedia Commons as freely licensed own work (I took the photographs; the artworks depicted are my own). I would be grateful if an editor could place them in the article where appropriate:
- [[File:Portrait of Rindon Johnson 2022.jpg]] — self-portrait, suggested for the infobox with the caption "Johnson in 2022" (the artwork visible in the photograph is The birch canoe slid on the smooth planks, my own work).
- [[File:For example, collect the water just to see it pool there above your head. Don’t be a Fucking Hero!.jpg|thumb|''For example, collect the water just to see it pool there above your head. Don’t be a Fucking Hero!'' (2021–ongoing), rawhide, installation view, ''Law of Large Numbers: Our Bodies'', SculptureCenter, New York]] — suggested placement: alongside the discussion of the SculptureCenter exhibition.
- [[File:Coeval Proposition 1 Tear down so as to make flat with the Ground or The Trans America Building DISMANTLE EVERYTHING.jpg|thumb|''Coeval Proposition #1: Tear down so as to make flat with the Ground or The *Trans America Building DISMANTLE EVERYTHING'' (2021), reclaimed redwood, installation view, ''Law of Large Numbers: Our Selves'', Chisenhale Gallery, London]] — suggested placement: alongside the discussion of the Chisenhale exhibition.
- [[File:Seven Whale Road.jpg|thumb|Installation view, ''Seven Whale Road'', CIBRIÁN, Donostia-San Sebastián, 2025]] — suggested placement: near the solo exhibitions list or discussion of recent work.
