In the November issue of CAA News, we read that caa.reviews has five new field editors:

18th Century European Art: Laura Auricchio (Parsons)

Pre-Columbian / Colonial Latin American Art: Charlene Villaseñor Black (UCLA)

American Art: Cécile Whiting (UC-Irvine)

Modern/Contemporary Art Exhibitions in New England: Patricia Hills (BU)

Modern/Contemporary Art Exhibitions in New York / Abroad: Margaret Sundell

We also read that Robert Herbert has abandoned writing art history. “He has discovered a passionate interest during the past several years in the life and work of a mid-nineteenth-century female botanist and illustrator named Orra White Hitchcock … ‘It’s a new world for me, and I have no regrets at giving up French art history!’”
