Justin Greenlee

  

Justin is a doctoral candidate in Art History at the University of Virginia, where he works on topics pertaining to late medieval and early modern art in Italy. His research often deals with objects that are created, acted on, and restored many times—works that frustrate a study of the moment of creation and require an analysis that moves across time and geographic borders. His areas of interest include the history of art and humanism, the collecting practices of the Byzantine émigré Basilios Bessarion, and the Kardashians! Check out the website he created with other members of the 2016/17 Praxis program in the Scholars’ Lab @ UVA: “DASH-Amerikan: Keeping up with the Social Media Ecologies of the Kardashians”!
