Megan Renee Fizell
I am a Sydney-based art historian and writer concerned with the representation of food in the visual arts. My educational background commenced at the University of Michigan, where I majored in History of Art as well as English Literature. At UofM I acquired a broad art historical background that was further enhanced by a semester of study in Italy, as well as an art history trip to Mexico.
I completed my four-year degree in three years, with two majors and a proficiency in Latin. I immediately moved to London and began a master’s degree in Art Business at Sotheby’s Institute of Art. I graduated in April 2008 with merit and also achieved a merit on my dissertation, The Effects of Restoration on the Art Market Value of Ceramics. I subsequently wrote a tangent article considering contemporary artists exploring methods of repair and use in their work that was published in the December 2009 issue of Ceramics Monthly. In August 2010, the publication, Slow Burn - a century of Australian women artists from a private collection, I researched and co-authored was published in conjunction with an exhibition by the same title at the S.H. Ervin Gallery, Sydney. I have several forthcoming articles in publications ranging from Ceramics Monthly to Artlink and am a regular contributer to the 'Stir it Up' section of the Christian Science Monitor.
Professionally I worked first as an editorial intern at Sotheby’s Preview Magazine and then as an assistant at an urban art gallery. While working in London I had several short exhibition reviews published via online media outlets. Upon moving to Sydney, Australia I began employment as an associate in one of the leading galleries in the country and I began my own company, Tres Jolie Studios, where I work as a freelance writer, photographer and contributor to Getty Images. My food/art blog was launched at this time, and Getty later sourced many of the images shot for Feasting on Art for their collection.
I currently hold the Gallery Manager position at Brenda May Gallery in Sydney.
