Francis McKee

Francis McKee is a Lecturer in Fine Art-MFA at the Glasgow School of Art (GSA). His work spans art criticism, cultural translation, and feminist theory, often intersecting with Eastern European cinema and post-Soviet cultural narratives. McKee has contributed to major exhibitions including 'Queereal Secretions' (2023) and 'Trace Evidence' (2023), and has curated projects exploring liminal spaces and political allegories. His translation of Ester Krumbachová's 'Dark Tales' (2018) highlights feminist perspectives in Czech literature. McKee's recent Substack articles (2024) critically analyze contemporary art's engagement with chaos and systemic critique. He has published widely in journals like philoSOPHIA and Afterall, addressing themes such as queer aesthetics and socio-political art practices. His research often bridges theory and practice, with a focus on cultural hybridity and institutional critique.
