Rosalind Krauss

Meyer Schapiro Professor of Modern Art and Theory at Columbia University

Rosalind Krauss is Professor of Art History at Columbia University. A specialist in 20th-century art, she has published Terminal Iron Works: The Sculpture of David Smith, Passages in Modern Sculpture, The Sculpture of David Smith: A Catalogue Raisonné, The Originality of the Avant-Garde and Other Modernist Myths, Le Photographique, and The Optical Unconscious. As guest curator she organized the exhibition Joan Miro: Magnetic Fields for the Guggenheim Museum in 1971, prepared a section of the Whitney Museum's 200 Years of American Sculpture, originated the exhibition L'Amour fou: Surrealism and Photography at the Corcoran Museum, curated Richard Serra/Sculpture for the Museum of Modern Art, and the Guggenheim's retrospective Robert Morris: The Mind/Body Problem. She is currently preparing L'Informe: Modernism against the Grain for the Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris.

Having held the conviction that the history of modern art could not be pursued apart from its criticism, Rosalind Krauss joined the editorial board of Artforum magazine in the 1960s. In 1975, along with Annette Michelson, she left Artforum to start a new journal, October magazine, published by MIT Press. There too, the task of writing and publishing is understood as forging a relationship between contemporary criticism and scholarship, for October has, from its inception, conceived of criticism as an act of opening the history of modernism to theory, that is, to an examination of its fundamental premises.
