Caroline A. Jones
Caroline A. Jones
Caroline Jones studies modern and contemporary art, with a particular focus on its technological modes of production, distribution, and reception. Professor of art history and director of the History, Theory, Criticism Program in the Department of Architecture at MIT, she has also worked as an essayist and curator, most recently with MIT's List Visual Art Center on Video Trajectories. She completed her PhD at Stanford University in 1992, before which she held positions at The Museum of Modern Art in New York (1977-83) and the Harvard University Art Museums (1983-85). Her exhibitions and/or films have been shown at MoMA and Harvard as well as the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington DC, and the Hara Museum Tokyo, among other venues; her publications include Sensorium (as editor, 2006), Eyesight Alone (2005), Machine in the Studio (1996/98), the coedited volume Picturing Science, Producing Art (1998), and other works. A frequent contributor to Artforum, Jones's current research into globalism informs her next book on contemporary art, the world picture, and what she calls "biennial culture."
