Dr Lily Evans-Hill

Lily Evans-Hill is an Art Historian specialising in visual cultures informed by feminist politics in Britain and the United States.

Her PhD project ‘Feminist Group-work: The emergence of the Women Artists Slide Library, 1970-1982′ was supervised by Dr Catherine Grant and Dr Althea Greenan (Goldsmiths) and funded by CHASE/AHRC. It explored the slide registry as a tactic of feminist informed artists and a resource for curatorial and history work, as it enveloped key concerns of feminist practice by constituting new relational structures between women, raising consciousness about women’s art, and facilitating art historical writing informed by feminist politics. Her current research considers artist’s pedagogies informed by women’s liberation across the 1970-1980s, with a particular focus on collaboration.

Lily has published and presented research on print and visual cultures informed by feminism. In 2022, she was fellow at the Archives of American Art where she researched women’s slide registries in the United States. She has a long standing interest in feminist archives and research methodologies, which informs her work and teaching. She is currently a Teaching Fellow in Modern and Contemporary Art History and Theory at the Courtauld.
