CWAC Voices—Issue Two

January 29, 2026

We are pleased to announce the publication of the second issue of CWAC Voices, featuring exhibition reviews selected by Prof. Mehring and visiting critics from her "Writing Art Criticism" seminar in fall 2025. Texts include discussions of Yoko Ono's retrospective at the MCA, solo shows of DoVA faculty members Bethany Collins and Phil Qian, and the Chicago Architecture Biennial co-curated by our very own Chana Haouzi. We thank Natalie Jenkins '25, Morley Musick '18, Mike Maizels MAPH '08, Noah Becker, Suzanna Murawski '24, and Liam Gillick for sharing their writing expertise; Dieter Roelstraete, Quichen Wu, Wilson Yerxa, Janine Mileaf, and Chana Haouzi for conversations about and in their exhibitions; and Chicago Studies and the Department of Art History for supporting our critics’ visits and meetings throughout Chicago. Issue two was produced by Metcalf intern and comparative human development and art history major Zia Pao-Ziegler. While taking its name from the home of our Department of Art History, the Cochrane-Woods Art Center, CWAC Voices welcomes submissions of edited student writing about art from all UChicago instructors, including graduate student teachers.
