معرفی
Ximena A. Gómez serves as Assistant Professor of American Art, holding a BA from Mount Holyoke College, MA from Tufts University, and PhD from the University of Michigan. Her academic profile centers on decolonizing art historical narratives through rigorous archival research.
Her research specializes in colonial Latin American visual culture with emphatic focus on black and indigenous agency in religious and artistic expression within colonial Lima. Methodologically, she centers subaltern epistemologies by integrating Andean and West African visual traditions into analyses of European artworks, directly challenging Eurocentric omissions in art history. Additional scholarly interests include miracle-working Marian imagery and contemporary Latinx artistic reactivations of pre-colonial and colonial heritage.
While no specific awards or student mentorship details appear in current documentation, her work represents critical intervention in transatlantic art historical discourse through its commitment to marginalized perspectives and interdisciplinary archival recovery.
