Emily Watlington is a critic, curator, and senior editor at Art in America. Her writing often focuses on disability culture, feminism, and those places where art and science meet. She is a Fulbright scholar with a master’s degree from MIT in the history, theory, and criticism of architecture and art. In 2020, she received the Theorist Award from C/O Berlin, and in 2018, the Vera List Writing Prize for Visual Art. When she is able to step away from New York, where her life revolves around reading, writing, and seeing art, she is curious about surfing, foraging mushrooms, deserts, and animal liberation.
