Allison Morehead
Allison Morehead is Professor of Art History and in the Cultural Studies Graduate Program at Queen's University. Morehead is the author of Nature's Experiments and the Search for Symbolist Form (Penn State University Press, 2017), the curator of Lifeblood - Edvard Munch (Munch Museum, Oslo, 27 June – 21 September 2025), and the co-editor of the forthcoming volume Art and the Critical Medical Humanities (Bloomsbury, 2025). In all of this work, Morehead explores the relays between modern art, the psy-sciences, and the medicalization of modern life, focusing on the universal and particular experiences of living in modern and contemporary worlds with vulnerable bodies that are also gendered, raced, classed, and disabled. Professor Morehead is currently the Editor-in-Chief of caa.reviews, a born-digital journal that publishes reviews of projects – including books and exhibitions – in the fields of art, art history, and design.
This series is brought to you by the Faculty of Arts and Science's Visual & Critical Studies and Criticism & Curatorial Practice Program.
