Elisa Caldarola

I am tenure-track assistant professor at the University of Turin, in the Department of Philosophy and Education Sciences. Currently, I am also Marie Sklodowska Curie visiting scholar at The Graduate Center, City University of New York. I work on topics at the intersection between philosophy of art, mind, language, and metaphysics. My recent research focuses on the metaphysics, phenomenology, and appreciative experience of installation art. Previously, I worked mainly on depiction, abstract pictures, caricatures, and conceptual art. I received a PhD from the University of Padua (2011), have been Fulbright scholar at the University of Maryland, College Park (2015/16), Stars Grant Fellow at the University of Padua (2018/20), and assistant professor at Ca' Foscari University, Venice (2022/23).
