Elizabeth Smith receives curatorial internship

Elizabeth Driscoll Smith (MA in Art History, 2016; Advisor: Jongwoo Jeremy Kim) has received a curatorial internship at the Indianapolis Museum of Art. During her internship, she will work with Dr. Tricia Y. Paik, Curator of Contemporary Art. Elizabeth's MA Thesis "Claude Cahun, Marcel Moore, and the Collapse of Surrealist Photography" examines how Cahun and Moore—lovers and artists affiliated with the Surrealist movement during the 1930s—reworked Sigmund Freud’s writings on fetishism to disrupt and question the conventional notions of sexual difference. Elizabeth currently holds the position of Research Assistant at the Speed Art Museum, where she was the Hite-Speed Fellow in 2015.
