Ivana Dizdar is an art historian and a postdoctoral fellow in the History of Art at Yale University. Her work spans nineteenth-century visual and material culture, the history of science and exploration, postcolonial studies, the environmental humanities, and animal studies. She is currently working on her first book: a history of how the Arctic was represented across visual media—including paintings, panoramas, photographs, ethnographic sculptures, and interior design—in nineteenth-century Paris. She received her PhD from the University of Toronto and has held fellowships at the Musée d’Orsay in Paris, in the Department of Art and Archaeology at Princeton University, and, most recently, at the Getty Research Institute in Los Angeles. Also active as a curator, she has worked on exhibitions of modern and contemporary art at the National Gallery of Canada (Ottawa), the McMaster Museum of Art (Hamilton), the 59th Venice Biennale, Qatar Museums (Doha), the Museum of Arts and Design (New York), and the Museum of Modern Art (New York).
