Jill Carrick is a distinguished academic specializing in 20th Century art history and cultural theory at Carleton University's Department of Art History and Institute for Comparative Studies in Literature, Art and Culture. Her research focuses on Neo-dada movements in 1960s France and Europe, particularly the works of Daniel Spoerri and François Dufrêne.
Her educational background includes a BA and MA from the University of Melbourne and a Ph.D. from Bryn Mawr College. Following her doctorate, she held a Killam Postdoctoral Fellowship at the University of British Columbia before joining Carleton University.
Carrick's research interests span Neo-Dada Art, Nouveau Realisme, 20th Century European Art, Feminist Art Theory, and Postmodern Cultural Studies. Her work examines the intersection of artistic experimentation, everyday materiality, and theoretical frameworks, with particular attention to how 1960s avant-garde movements continue to influence contemporary practice.
