Lisa Wainwright

Elle a obtenu une licence avec mention honorifique en histoire de l'art à l'université Vanderbilt, en 1982. Elle a étudié au Goethe-Institut de Blaubeuren, en Allemagne, durant l'été 1982.

Elle a ensuite rejoint l'université de l'Illinois, pour obtenir une maîtrise en histoire de l'art des XIX^e et XX^e siècles en 1986. Puis elle a obtenu un doctorat en 1993.

Au sein de l'école de l'Art Institute of Chicago, elle a été doyenne de la faculté et vice-présidente des affaires académiques[1], ainsi qu'officière du titre IX pour la faculté[2].

Les recherches historiques de Wainwright se concentrent sur Robert Rauschenberg. Sa thèse, Reading Junk: Thematic Imagery in the Art of Robert Rauschenberg from 1954 to 1964, est citée dans le Rauschenberg Research Project, San Francisco Museum of Modern Art[3] et dans le livre The Great Migrator: Robert Rauschenberg and the Global Rise of American Art, par Hiroko Ikegami, MIT Press, 2010[4]. Elle déclare que son étude de Rauschenberg a influencé son travail à SAIC. « Rauschenberg m'a aidé à devenir une meilleure doyenne », explique-t-elle. « Il a abordé tous les supports, de la sculpture et de la peinture à la gravure et à la technologie artistique. Son approche transdisciplinaire de l'art a eu une telle influence sur la façon dont j'éduque la prochaine génération d'artistes ici[5]. »

Wainwright a été invité à discuter de la vie et de l'héritage de Rauschenberg sur Bad At Sports, EPISODE 144.

Actuellement, elle travaille comme responsable du titre IX pour l'École de l'Art Institute of Chicago à destination du corps professoral[2].
