She’s a member of the International Association of Art Critics and has organized over 100 exhibitions at museums, galleries, and art fairs in cities including Abu Dhabi, Berlin, Brussels, Paris, Moscow, Vienna, Miami, Los Angeles, and Almaty, Kazakhstan.

Emilie’s writing has been published by The New York Times, Artforum, The Paris Review, The Brooklyn Rail, Southwest Contemporary, SLEEK Magazine (Berlin), DAMN° Mag (Brussels), and SOMA Magazine (San Francisco), among many other outlets. Her texts and translations (German > English) have also appeared in exhibition catalogues for galleries and art institutions such as Contemporary Fine Arts (Berlin), Akademie Schloss Solitude, Gazelli Art House, and Sundaram Tagore Gallery. In 2019, her essay on artist Ted Riederer was published by the Brooklyn Academy of Music—America’s oldest performing arts venue—and sealed in a time capsule inside the wall of the museum’s Rudin Family Gallery for the Visual Arts, to be opened in 100 years.

Emilie’s curatorial work focuses on large-scale group shows in alternative spaces, such as an underground parking garage in Kazakhstan, a defunct industrial brewery in Berlin, and a historic schoolhouse in Denver. She has also curated exhibitions for institutions including Ars Electronica (Linz, Austria) and the Southern Utah Museum of Art (SUMA). During her time in Aspen, Emilie co-curated an annual exhibition of works by Andy Warhol in collaboration with Christie’s and the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts. Her work has received press coverage in The Aspen Times, Modern Painters, Artforum.com, The New York Times, The Economist, and other outlets.

She has exhibited her artwork in Aspen, Austin, Berlin, Denver, Los Angeles, Miami, New York, and San Francisco. Prior to and throughout her graduate studies, she worked for several art/tech start-ups, which collectively raised over $20 million in VC funding from firms including GV (Google Ventures), Betaworks, and Lupa Systems, among others.
