Founder, writer, and educator with 25 years of experience in startups, higher education, media, editorial, and artist services.
My current project is Artlance.co, a platform designed to revolutionize the way that quality art criticism gets paid for and published. You can read about Artlance here, my case for it here, and some of the plans I have for it here.
My essays and criticism have been published in ArtForum, Hyperallergic,The Brooklyn Rail, e-Flux Criticism, The Art Newspaper, ArtReview, Art-Agenda, Modern Painters, and in a number of museum and gallery catalogues. You can view the archive of my writing here.
From 2021 to 2024 I was Co-Founder of Inversion Art, a Y-Combinator-inspired accelerator and investment program designed to give visual artists the means and methods to pursue their most ambitious work.
Prior to Inversion Art, I was an Associate Provost at Claremont Graduate University and the Founding Director of Sotheby’s Institute of Art’s Los Angeles campus and partnership with Claremont. I also serve as an Editor-At-Large for The Brooklyn Rail (NY) and for many years was on the editorial masthead of ArtReview magazine (UK).
