Dr. Hannah Feldman, the Keith L. and Katherine Sachs Associate Professor of Contemporary Art at the University of Pennsylvania, is a historian and theorist of contemporary art and visuality, urban space, and decolonization/decoloniality with a special focus on modern and contemporary art in and about the Middle East and North Africa.

Feldman received her PhD from Columbia University, and her AB from Harvard University before that. She was one of the contributors for the publication of SCMA’s current exhibition Younes Rahmoun: Here, Now. In February 2025, she opened Huguette Caland: A Life in a Few Lines at the Reina Sofia in Madrid, Spain, which will travel in October 2025 to the Deichtorhallen in Hamburg, Germany.

The Miller Lecture in Art and Art History is an endowed program established by Dr. Michael Miller in memory of his wife, Dulcy Blume Miller, who was a member of the class of 1946. Each year, SCMA invites a distinguished artist, art historian, or curator to deliver a public lecture. Photo: Jonathan Singer. Artwork: Huguette Caland, Shéhérazade, c. 1984
