Kotz's research examines aspects of the cross-disciplinary and inter-media art practices that emerged in the post-WWII era.
Since 2007, Liz Kotz has held the title of assistant professor in the Department of the History of Art at the University of California, Riverside. Prior to arriving at UC Riverside, she taught at the University of Minnesota. She is also active as a critic and a curator.
Kotz's first book, Words To Be Looked At, is a critical study of uses of language in 1960s American art. It starts with the scores and compositions of the experimental American composer John Cage, tracing Cage's impact on 1960s artists and poets, including La Monte Young, George Brecht, Jackson Mac Low, Carl Andre, Vito Acconci, Lawrence Weiner and Andy Warhol. Her second book, Six Sound Problems, will address projects by Cage, David Tudor, La Monte Young, Bruce Nauman, Max Neuhaus and James Tenney. In 2007, Kotz received a Warhol Foundation/Creative Capital Arts Writers Grant for "In a Large Open Space," an essay on Tenney that will appear in Six Sound Problems.
Liz Kotz received her B.A. from Stanford University in 1986 and earned an M.A. in 1992 and a Ph.D. in 2002, both from Columbia University.
