Professor J.P. Park
Profile
I joined the Department of the History of Art and Lincoln College in 2019. I previously taught at Columbia University, the University of Colorado, and the University of California.

I teach the 'Visual Culture in Contemporary East Asia' module to second-year undergraduates, as well as 'Mapping East & West' to Master's students.
- Research
-
Although my primary research focuses on early modern Chinese and Korean art, I have extensively researched and published on a much wider spectrum of art historical topics, including print culture, cartography, literary criticism, art forgery, and post-globalism in contemporary East Asian art. I have authored a number of single-authored books, an exhibition catalogue, and an edited volume as well as dozens of articles featured in major field journals such as Art Bulletin, Archives of Asian Art, Artibus Asiae, Third Text, and Orientations among many others.
