Darla Migan is a philosopher, art critic, and curator. She thinks about how judgment orients the possibility for the recognition and misrecognition of personhood in intercultural and intra-cultural communities. Her analysis of art elucidates theories of judging across visual culture and her criticism is published in Artforum, The Brooklyn Rail, and Texte Zur Kunst. 

Prior to joining Stony Brook University, Darla taught at The New School for Social Research. She is a recipient of the Helena Rubinstein Fellowship in Critical Studies at the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Andy Warhol Foundation Arts Writers Grant, and the Dorothea and Leo Rabkin Prize for her contributions to the field of arts journalism.
