Asymmetry Postdoctoral Fellow
💰£36,950 starting salary per annum, inclusive of London weighting allowance
⏰Full Time (35 hours per week)/Fixed term for 24 months
🔔 Closes: 12 June 2024
The Asymmetry Postdoctoral Fellowship at The Courtauld is an exciting opportunity for an exceptional #earlycareerscholar to pursue innovative and rigorous #research in the field of #Chinese and/or #Sinophone #contemporaryart and #visualculture, broadly understood in its #transnational and #transcultural contexts.
The two-year #Fellowship will enable the scholar to work on their independent research project towards publication and/or other significant outputs with mentorship from a member of faculty; gain teaching experience; participate in the vibrant research culture at The Courtauld and other institutions in London and the UK; and assist in the conceptualisation and organisation of the annual #Asymmetry Lecture Series and International Symposium at The Courtauld. The Fellowship will be held over the 2024/25 and 2025/26 academic years.
The successful candidate will have been awarded a doctorate in Art History or a related discipline within the last eight years and demonstrate an active and critical engagement with Chinese and/or Sinophone contemporary #art and visual culture from novel perspectives. This includes, but is not limited to, research that examines its critical histories, multiple geographies, and intersections with issues pertaining to gender, geopolitics, the built environment, ecology, digital culture and technology.
