American art historian, author, and art critic From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rosalyn Deutsche is an art historian, author, and art critic who lives in New York City and teaches modern and contemporary art at Barnard College.[1]
Deutsche earned her Ph.D. at the Graduate Center, City University of New York,[2] writing on the effects of art, architecture and design upon urban settings,[3] under Linda Nochlin. She is married to Robert Ubell.[4]
Deutsche writes and lectures on topics of "art and urbanism, art and the public sphere, and feminist theories of subjectivity in representation."[5]
Deutsche "has written extensively and lectured internationally on such interdisciplinary topics as art and urbanism, art and the public sphere, art and the declaration of rights, art and war, and feminist theories of subjectivity in visual representation."[2]
She is co-author of "The Fine Art of Gentrification,"[6] a 1984 article providing commentary on the profits of commercial galleries and their effects on the communities where they locate. "The art world functions ideologically to exploit the neighborhood for its bohemian or sensationalist connotations while deflecting attention away from underlying social, economic, and political processes," the authors wrote.[7] Deutsche has also said, "...it had become clear to most observers that the visibility of masses of homeless people interferes with positive images of New York, constituting a crisis in the official representation of the city."[8]
