Stacey Sloboda is the Paul H. Tucker Professor of Art at the University of Massachusetts Boston. Her research focuses particularly on eighteenth-century art, design, and material culture in Britain, with a special interest in cros-cultural exchange and global networks. She is the author of Chinoiserie: Commerce and Critical Ornament in Eighteenth-Century Britain; co-editor of Eighteenth-Century Art Worlds: Global and Local Geographies of Art; and editor of Interiors in the Age of Enlightenment: A Cultural History.

Dr. Sloboda authored chapters on European art in the Baroque period, in the Dutch Republic, during the Enlightenment, and the Rococo and Neoclassical periods. She also played a pivotal role in conceiving the “Seeing Connections” features, and in coordinating the efforts of her co-authors as they collaborated on the features.
