I am an art historian (Dr. habil. 2026, venia legendi in art history from the early modern period to the present) and was Akademische Rätin at Leuphana University Lüneburg from 2022 to 2025. My work connects art history with the history of labor and organization, and with media history.
Building on my habilitation, I currently study how artistic production is organized within systems of knowledge, division of labor, and technology, and how its conditions inscribe themselves into the material form of art – not as a question of periods but of paradigms: from the premodern workshop to today’s algorithmic image systems. A second axis concerns technical images; my dissertation already examined the supersession of the optical arts by optical media.
