Art History Major Curatorial Assistant Research and Cataloging
My studies have focused on surrealism, post-minimalism, disability studies in the arts and curatorial studies, with a primary focus on art from the twentieth century on. I have a broad understanding of important theories and the art historical timeline. My thesis focused on the work of Eva Hesse and Louise Bourgeois in relationship to the trauma that they have gone through. I used a range of sources, such as personal writings and history, as well as writings by authors such as Mignon Nixon which combined psychology and art theory. I am skilled at teaching myself how to learn new skills especially when it pertains to technology and design.
