Faglige interesser

Mitt forskningsfelt er 20 og 21 århundres kunst, med spesiell vekt på forholdet mellom kunst, medier, teknologi og estetikk slik det kommer til uttrykk i 1900-tallets avantgarde-bevegelser og vår tids samtidskunst. 

Jeg har deltatt i NFR-prosjektene Aesthetics at Work (2003-2007) og Media Aesthetics (2004-2008) og har ledet det tverrfaglige NFR-prosjektet The Archive in Motion (2011-2014) som var et samarbeid med forskere fra medie- og filmvitenskap.

Jeg har vært del av international editorial board for Art History. Journal of the Association of Art Historians (Wiley) (2012-2016) og er for tiden medlem av editorial board for MAST. The Journal of Media Art, Study and Theory (NeMLA), Venti Journal (Air, Experience, Aesthetics) and Journal of Art History (Routledge).  Jeg er også aktiv som kunstkritiker og bidrar jevnlig til publikasjoner som Artforum, Afterall, Parkett, og Texte zur Kunst. Jeg har tidligere arbeidet som musikk-kritiker og har også kuratert en  en rekke utstillinger.

Siden 2015 arbeider jeg også som gjesteprofessor ved Department of Art History, University of Chicago.
