Amelia Jones is an American art historian, art critic and curator specializing in feminist art, body/performance art, video art and Dadaism. Her written works and approach to modern and contemporary art history are considered revolutionary in that she breaks down commonly assumed opinions and offers critiques of the art historical tradition and individual artist's positions in that often elitist sphere.
Amelia Jones, the daughter of Princeton Psychology professor Edward E. Jones, studied art history at Harvard and the University of Pennsylvania. She received her PhD from UCLA in 1991.
Jones has taught art history at UC Riverside, University of Southern California, the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, CA, and was formerly the Pilkington Chair of the art history department at the University of Manchester. She has also worked as a visiting professor at Maine College of Art, Texas Christian University, University of Colorado, Boulder, and Washington University, St. Louis and is currently a professor and the Grierson Chair in Visual Culture in the Department of Art History and Communication Studies at McGill University.
Promise me you'll remember
This love together today
We may not have tomorrow
It's not for us to say
Fate isn't kind to lovers
It breaks the hardest hearts
Promise you'll remember
How good we are
Why do I find the sadness
Under your sweetest kiss
Destiny seems to whisper
It won't stay like this
Whenever we're together
I feel time standing still
I only know I love you
And I always will
If we should lose each other
Somewhere inside the dark
Promise me you'll remember
How good we are
Whenever we're together
I feel time standing still
I only know I love you
And I always will
If we should lose each other
Somewhere inside the dark
Promise me you'll remember
How good we are
Time isn't kind to lovers
It breaks the hardest hearts
Promise me you'll remember
