Carrie Moyer Named Director of MFA Program

Hunter College is pleased to announce the appointment of painter and writer Carrie Moyer as the new director of its nationally ranked graduate studio program. A member of Hunter’s studio faculty since 2011, Professor Moyer has exhibited in the US and Europe for over twenty years and has been the subject of several solo museum exhibitions. Her paintings were included in the 2017 Whitney Biennial. Between 1991-2008, Moyer and photographer Sue Schaffner collaborated as Dyke Action Machine!, a public art project that humorously dissected mainstream advertising through the insertion of lesbian imagery. Moyer’s writing has appeared in Art in America, Artforum, the Brooklyn Rail as well as anthologies and monographs. Professor Moyer takes over from Professor Joel Carreiro, who guided Hunter’s MFA program for nearly two decades.
