New York/ *USA 1960

B.A., Yale

M.Phil., Columbia University

Judith Rodenbeck was raised in Egypt. One of her first clear memories is of watching John F. Kennedy's funeral on television. Early work was in performance and video; after the Gulf War this felt indulgent, and she turned to art history and theory. She is currently completing "The Black Box of Experience: Happenings and the Mechanization of Affect, 1958-66", a study of early happenings. In addition to writing and lecturing on postwar and neo-avant-garde practices, she co-curated "Experiments in the Everyday: Allan Kaprow and Robert Watts - Events, Objects, Documents" and was a contributing writer to the catalogue for "Inside the Visible". Her work has appeared in "Anarchy" and on the web as well as in "The Art Book", "Documents", "P-Form", and elsewhere. She is on the faculty at Sarah Lawrence College in Bronxville, New York where she teaches modern and contemporary art.
