Katherine Behar is an interdisciplinary artist and writer based in New York where she is Professor of New Media Arts at Baruch College-CUNY. Through feminism and materialism, she explores gender, race, class, and labour in contemporary digital culture. Mixing low and high technologies, she creates hybrid forms that are by turns humorous and sensuous. In recent projects, the automated workplace has become a site for cooperation and compromise between human and robot workers. Her books include Object-Oriented Feminism, And Another Thing: Nonanthropocentrism and Art, and Bigger than You: Big Data and Obesity. Behar is a Creative Capital Awardee in Technology. In 2024 the Beall Center for Art + Technology presented a major solo exhibition ‘Ack! Knowledge! Work!’ with an expanded catalogue forthcoming from punctum books.
