One-week Visiting Professorship in the academic years of either 2011-12 or 2012-13

With the sponsorship of the Terra Foundation for American Art, the Research Forum is offering a one-week Visiting Professorship in American art.  This fellowship is part of an initiative of the Terra Foundation that aims to internationalise the field of historical American art, building a network of scholarly peers and has been awarded in conjunction with similar fellowships at the Freie Universität Berlin and the Institut national d’histoire de l’art in Paris.

This appointment is offered to a scholar of American Art whose work plays a defining role in the disciplines of art and architectural history and conservation and who is willing to share their research with The Courtauld’s community formally (through lectures and seminars) and informally.  In addition to presenting their research the Visiting Professor is expected to meet with graduate students and postdoctoral fellows to discuss their individual projects.

The Professorship is to be held during the period 2011-13, in the alternate academic year to the twelve-week Visiting Professorship also being offered.

For the one-week appointment there is no formal application procedure.  Those interested were asked to send an expression of interest with a CV by email marked for the attention of Professor Caroline Arscott to: researchforum@courtauld.ac.uk.
