ABOUT:

Cindy Lisica is a professor, curator, museum professional, and former gallery owner. She holds a PhD in History and Theory of Art from the University of the Arts London, an MA in Modern and Contemporary Art from California State University-Long Beach, and BA in Integrative Art with a sculpture emphasis from The Pennsylvania State University. She has successfully owned and operated two commercial art galleries: Revision Space in Pittsburgh from 2014 to 2016 and Cindy Lisica Gallery in Houston from 2016 to 2019. She has curated over 50 exhibitions for artists in her galleries and participated in art fairs in Miami, DC, Houston, and New York. While in Houston, in addition to operating her retail gallery space in the Museum District, she served as a speaker on Andy Warhol and Takashi Murakami at the Printing Museum, juror for the Visual Arts Alliance 35th Juried Members Exhibition, portfolio reviewer for the Fotofest Biennial 2018, and was a founding officer of the Houston Art Gallery Association. She has given talks at The Brooklyn Museum of Art, MAC Marseille (Le Musée d’Art Contemporain), The House of World Cultures in Berlin, University of Helsinki, The Mori Art Museum, and CAFA Shanghai, among other institutions. Cindy has lived and traveled extensively throughout Asia, Europe, and the Americas, and has also held museum positions at The Andy Warhol Museum, MOCA Los Angeles, The Menil Collection, Tate Britain and Tate Modern. She has set up exhibitions internationally in Paris, Shanghai, Beijing, and Tokyo and published several exhibition catalogs, articles, and reviews. She has most recently published a ten-chapter book called “Global Perspectives in Modern Art: Turning Points of the Twentieth Century,” which is available now through Kendall Hunt. Her new account of the last century acknowledges the “big hits” and established traditions —and the groundbreakers who challenged them. Cindy Lisica is currently Professor of Art History at the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD) in Savannah, GA, and has previously taught at University of Pittsburgh, University of Houston, National University in Sherman Oaks, CA, and the MFA program at Houston Baptist University.
