Art Historian Talk
Maggie Cao, Associate Professor,
University of North Carolina
April 18, 6pm
At Crisp-Ellert Art Museum
Maggie Cao is a scholar of eighteenth and nineteenth-century American art in a global context. She studies the history of globalization with particular interest in intersections of art with histories of technology, natural science, and economics. Her first book, The End of Landscape in Nineteenth-Century America (University of California Press, 2018) examines the dissolution of landscape painting as a major cultural project in the late nineteenth-century United States and argues that landscape is the genre through which American artists most urgently sought to come to terms with modernity. Cao has also written on media theory, material culture, and ecocriticism. Her recent publications include essays on the print culture of the earliest worldwide financial bubbles and the materiality of export art made in eighteenth-century China.
She is currently finishing a second book entitled Painting US Empire: Nineteenth-Century Art and its Legacies, the first synthetic treatment of nineteenth-century art and empire in the global context. The project offers revisionist readings of globally-themed artwork. Subjects include landscapes of the tropics and Arctic, trompe l’oeil still lifes of imported goods, ethnographic portraits, and genre scenes linked to tourism. The book aims to connect historic American paintings to the flows of commodities and peoples through colonial systems and infrastructures in the decades leading up to formal U.S. colonization in 1898. It also tackles the legacy of American imperialism, connecting the metropolitan, Euro-American painters of the past with the more racially diverse global artists of the present. The book will be published by Chicago University Press in 2024.
Professor Cao received her doctorate in art history from Harvard University in 2014 and did postdoctoral work at Columbia University’s Society of Fellows before coming to UNC in 2016. At UNC, she teaches the history of American art from the colonial period to the twentieth century as well as courses on the visual histories of science and economics.
Professor Cao has received fellowships for her research from the National Humanities Center, the Terra Foundation, and the Smithsonian. In spring 2024, she will be a visiting scholar at the Getty Research Institute.

Lunchbox
Fabric, Cherry Wood, Zipper
4" x 4" x 5"
This sculpture reflects when my Nana would pick me up after school and take me to swimming lessons. She used to pack a navy blue lunch box with snacks for me; at the bottom of the lunchbox would always be chocolate, which was my favorite. I used navy blue fabric to represent the lunchbox and hand-sewed the pouch. I used a navy blue zipper to represent the zipper on the lunchbox and the act of opening and closing. I added a piece of fabric to represent the lunchbox handle. The chocolate bar is made out of cherry wood and represents the many chocolates my Nana packed for me.

Swing
Wood, Coconut Husk, Metallic paint
2.5" diameter
This piece is based on a memory of my grandfather and I sharing coconut for the first time. We were outside on our outdoor swing. I was so small sitting next to him, he leaned over with his pocket knife and asked if I wanted to try coconut meat. Me, being five years old at the time, thought he was insane coconuts aren't supposed to have meat, a coconut is a fruit! He laughed so hard at my expression and after some convincing he chucked off a piece of meat and I chewed on the coconut as we continued to swing. It seems like this memory could go on forever and I'd like to think this memory will always be how I see myself and my grandfather. The taller piece of coconut husk represents my grandfather and the smaller piece represents me, utilizing size to show the significance I felt as a small child. The wood sphere derives from the shape of a coconut and the metallic paint represents my grandfather's pocket knife.

Growing up with ADHD was one of the hardest things I had to overcome. The constant need for stimulation was crippling and affected me and those around me. One of my favorite pastimes was playing with marbles and climbing trees in order to feel stimulated. This sculpture embodies all of the things I loved as a little boy and reminds me of all the times I would escape to climb a tree and my obsession for holding and playing with marbles which gave me comfort.
