Visiting Artist Lecture Series: Carmen Winant

Carmen Winant is an artist and the Roy Lichtenstein Chair of Studio Art at the Ohio State University; her work utilizes installation and collage strategies to examine feminist modes of survival and revolt. Winant’s recent projects have been shown at the Museum of Modern Art, Sculpture Center, Wexner Center of the Arts, the Cleveland Museum of Art, ICA Boston, The Museo Universitario Arte Contemporáneo, and as part of the CONTACT Photography Festival, which mounted twenty-six of her billboards across Canada. A forthcoming show will take place at Minneapolis Institute of Art in 2023. Winant’s recent artist’s books include My Birth (2018), Notes on Fundamental Joy (2019), Instructional Photography: Learning How To Live Now (2021); Arrangements and A Brand New End: Survival and Its Pictures (both 2022). Winant is a 2019 Guggenheim Fellow in photography, a 2020 FCA Artist Honoree and a 2021 American Academy of Arts and Letters award recipient. She is a mother to her two sons, Carlo and Rafa, shared with her partner, Luke Stettner.
