Jed Perl (born 1951) is an American art critic and author in New York City. ==Career== Jed Perl initially trained as a painter. He holds a Bachelor of Arts from Columbia College and also studied at the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture. He decided to devote himself fully to criticism in the mid-1980s. "In my twenties I was very involved in making art as well as writing about art," he said an interview, "but in the early 80s I came to what I guess I would describe as a fork in the road, and around 1985 I just decided to stop painting. A lot of people were not that surprised, they felt that’s where I was going." Perl became one of the art critics at ''The New Criterion'' soon after its founding in 1982. From there he went on to editorial appointments at ''Art and Antiques'', ''Salamagundi'', ''Vogue'', and ''Modern Painters'' before joining ''The New Republic'' in 1994. His essays have appeared there regularly since then.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The New Republic: Jed Perl )〕 Perl is the former Chairman of the Board of the Heliker-LaHotan Foundation, which is dedicated to the preservation and study of the art of John Heliker and Robert LaHotan and the maintenance of their former home on Great Cranberry Island, Maine as an artist residency.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=About the Heliker-LaHotan Foundation )〕 He was a friend of Heliker's and wrote the foreword for the catalogue of the exhibition "John Heliker: Drawing on the New Deal, 1932-1948" which originated at Stephen F.
