配置文件

凯文Lotery is an art historian specializing in modern and contemporary art in Europe and the Americas. His research has focused on interactions between art, 体系结构, and forms of technological and philosophical research. 他的第一本书, The Long Front of Culture: The Independent Group and Exhibition Design (MIT Press/10月 书, 2020), examines the collaborative exhibition design projects of the unruly cadre of artists, 架构师, 策展人, and 作家 known as the Independent Group or IG in 1950s Britain. The first book-length study of the IG’s exhibition designs, the book argues for exhibition design as a crucial cross-disciplinary and global mode of aesthetic production and image distribution at mid-century, one that resonates with much contemporary art today.

His current research explores the last works of artists, 作家, 特别是, filmmakers and film 作家 whose work stemmed, 至少在某种程度上, from the experience of the Holocaust and its generational transmission, such as Chantal Akerman, 米利暗汉森, 伊娃海塞, Siegfried Kracauer, 克罗德·兰兹曼, 和普里莫·列维.
