About

I am enjoying a career in the New York art world with experience ranging from teaching at the graduate level, designing academic programs, museum education, writing and curating. I recently directed a Masters program in Modern and Contemporary Art at Christie’s Education, New York. A pioneering scholar in installation art, I’m the author of From Margin to Center: The Spaces of Installation Art (MIT Press, 1999). For the past eight years my focus has been on contemporary art in the climate crisis. I’m the editor of Art, Theory and Practice in the Anthropocene (Vernon Press, 2019). I earned my Ph.D. in Art History from the Graduate Center of CUNY.
