In 2013 she received her Ph.D. from the Goethe University Frankfurt; her book about the Russian avant-garde artist Ivan Puni and the discourse of conditionality of painting in Western and Russian art criticism has been published recently (Bedingtheit der Malerei. Ivan Puni und die modern Bildkritik, Gebrüder Mann Verlag, 2016). Her research addresses the Russian and European avant-gardes, American art after 1945, the methodology of Art History, and the interrelationship between art, art criticism, and mass media. She is the co-editor of Theorie². Potenzial und Potenzierung künstlerischer Theorie (with Eva Ehninger, Peter Lang Verlag, 2014). Her current work deals with the critique of linear perspective in the American art of the late 1960s and 1970s.
