The School of Arts seeks to appoint a Lecturer (or Senior Lecturer) in the Art History of Africa in the Department of the History of Art & Archaeology, starting in around August 2020. The appointee will carry out research and provide teaching and supervision in the contemporary, modern and/or pre-modern arts and visual cultures of one or more regions of sub-Saharan Africa. As an expected growth area, West Africa is a region of particular interest to the Department. The art-historical specialism could include modes and practices such as painting, calligraphy, photography and video art, masquerade, textiles, curating and/or cultural industries. The appointee’s expertise should complement related existing specialisms in the Department of the History of Art & Archaeology, and in other areas of the School of Arts, e.g., cultural industries, film and screen studies and music. The School of Arts especially wishes to attract suitably qualified applicants from Africa and from African diaspora backgrounds: it is our ambition to find ways to redress the continuing low proportion of BME scholars in UK academia.

Broad area and skills: The post-holder must be able to contribute to disciplinary and specialist teaching in the History of Art & Archaeology and to broad arts-based teaching on BA programmes in the School of Arts, especially within BA Creative Arts. S/he will be able to teach or co-teach survey modules and to supervise BA and MA dissertations in the arts of sub-Saharan Africa and diaspora cultures. An ability to teach art theory relevant to art history, the creative arts and/or cultural industries and to foster and develop practice-based learning and teaching is highly desirable.

Essential: specialist knowledge demonstrated by a PhD in a relevant field; and evidence of a growing international professional network which would contribute to Knowledge Exchange, public (or non-academic) engagement, the development of strategic partnerships and student recruitment from Africa. A track record of participation in professional scholarly meetings and conferences, and advocacy, is essential as well as a high degree of potential to shape and influence the field, to contribute to SOAS's mission through research, impact and engagement and to enhance the reputation and standing of the Dept, School and university.

Desirable: At least two high-quality research publications since 2014 (in any appropriate form, including but not limited to published written work, digital outputs, exhibitions or films), which could be considered for evaluation in the national research assessment due to occur in the UK in 2020-21. Teaching experience, with evidence of high quality is also desirable, as is an appropriate teaching qualification. Art curating or equivalent cultural industries experience is also desirable.

Interpersonal and professional skills: The appointee will be highly motivated and provide evidence of skills including: excellent written and oral communications skills in teaching and in professional working relationships; excellent organisational skills and an ability to prioritise against competing deadlines; and a proven ability to work as part of a dynamic and high-functioning team. S/he will demonstrate a high potential to contribute to the management of programmes and the curriculum and to the development of innovative pedagogies; as well as the ability to promote SOAS values, including equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI), and SOAS’s decolonising agenda.

We have a long tradition of excellence in Greek and Latin literature, ancient history and ancient philosophy. Three interdisciplinary research centres are based in the Department: the Centre for the Study of the Ancient Mediterranean and the Near East, the Durham Centre for Classical Reception, and the Durham Centre for Ancient and Medieval Philosophy. In addition to these established areas of strength, we are interested in developing collaborations with other cross-Departmental research initiatives: for example, visual arts and culture, medical humanities, and digital humanities. For more information, please visit our Department pages at https://www.dur.ac.uk/classics/

Applicants must demonstrate research excellence in Roman History, with the ability to teach our students to an exceptional standard, and to engage fully in the services, citizenship, and values of the University. A commitment to MA teaching, doctoral supervision, and postdoctoral mentoring is essential. The ability and willingness to teach EITHER Greek OR Latin at all levels is essential, and the ability to teach BOTH Greek AND Latin at all levels is desirable: the Department takes pride in the linguistic training it offers, including very successful programmes of learning the classical languages ab initio.

The University provides a working and teaching environment which is inclusive and welcoming and where everyone is treated fairly with dignity and respect. Candidates will be expected to demonstrate these key principles as part of the assessment process. Applicants must have a good first degree and a PhD (completed or under examination) in Roman History or a related subject.

The History of Art and Visual Culture Department (havc.ucsc.edu) at the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) invites applications for the tenure-track Assistant Professorship in Europe in the Age of Colonialism and Resistance, 1500-1950. Across the centuries, European nations colonized much of the globe, impacting indigenous traditions and also changing European culture in fundamental ways. We seek a scholar whose research considers some aspect of Europe’s colonial agenda and its consequences, examining European art, architecture, and/or visual culture in ways that complicate the picture of European expansion and challenge the so-called Western episteme from a global perspective. Applicants must be capable of teaching a wide range of courses (large lecture to seminar) at the undergraduate and graduate levels. The department faculty support the investigation of art and visual culture from a variety of theoretical perspectives in the cultures of Africa, the Americas, Asia, Europe, the Mediterranean, and the Pacific Islands.

The ability to contribute significantly to graduate education and the mentoring of graduate students is highly desirable.

We have a strong undergraduate major and a dynamic Visual Studies Ph.D. program. Our division is enjoying faculty growth, significant fundraising successes, research centers, and innovative programming through the Institute of the Arts and Sciences.

We welcome candidates who understand the barriers facing women and minorities who are underrepresented in higher education careers (as evidenced by life experiences and educational background), and who have experience in equity, diversity, and inclusion with respect to teaching, mentoring, research, life experiences, or service towards building an equitable and diverse scholarly environment.

SALARY Commensurate with qualifications and experience; academic year (nine-month basis).

We welcome applications from those with the ability to contribute to the college’s continuing commitment to social and cultural diversity, inclusiveness, equity, and the transformative power of our differences, in the classroom, college, and community.

Earlham College (Richmond, IN) - TT Assistant Professor of Art History (Modern / Contemporary, or History of Craft)
Earlham College invites applications for a full-time tenure track position in the Art Department at the rank of Assistant Professor, beginning August 2020. Responsibilities include teaching six art history courses per year: a two-semester global survey and four additional mid-level and upper-level offerings. The curriculum in art history serves the needs of majors in studio art and art history, as well as the general education curriculum of the college. Responsibilities include close work with students and working cooperatively with members of the Art, Music, and Theatre Arts faculties in furthering the cause of the arts in the College.

PhD (or ABD) in Art History or a closely-related field is strongly preferred. A concentration in Modern/Contemporary Art or the History of Craft is preferred. We seek applicants who adopt a global approach in their teaching and research and who are conversant with visual studies, material culture, and critical race theory. We would particularly welcome scholars eager to contribute to the college’s many transdisciplinary programs, such as: Women’s, Gender, Sexuality Studies; African and African American Studies; Peace and Global Studies; Japan Studies; or Museum Studies. College-level teaching experience, and a demonstrated ability to teach and mentor students from diverse educational and cultural backgrounds, would be especially desirable. An interest in teaching undergraduates in a liberal arts context is essential. We especially welcome applicants who are sympathetic to Quaker values, including a commitment to social justice, educational equity, and respect for all persons. Candidates who bring experience that will contribute to the diversity of the college are strongly encouraged to apply.

Earlham College is a small liberal arts college in Richmond, Indiana, with about 1000 students. Recognized nationally for the quality of its academic programs, the college attracts a student body that is national and international in composition. The Art Department at Earlham College is unique among liberal arts schools, due to its emphasis on experiential learning within both the craft and fine art traditions. This program depends upon the Art History position to provide a foundational background for both. Along with Art majors, many students who are non-majors take studio art and art history courses at all levels and often are the majority of students in the class.

Each Art major chooses art history, ceramics, drawing, metalsmithing & 3D fabrication, painting, photography, or fibers as an area of focus. In addition to building competency in a focus, all Art majors take a variety of studio and art history courses and complete an internship. Their senior capstone project generally leads to a group exhibition or the presentation of a research paper.

Art students take advantage of Earlham’s many off-campus programs. Over 60% of our students spend a semester or more in a variety of places such as London, Japan, and New Zealand. Each year, several students spend a semester in an internship or apprenticeship in New York City, under the auspices of the NY Arts Program (operated by Ohio Wesleyan and the GLCA). Earlham also offers a semester of intense studio practice at Penland School of Craft.

Applicants should submit a letter of application, curriculum vitae, three letters of recommendation, a teaching statement, and a 300-500 word statement describing your ability to contribute to the advancement of Earlham’s goals of being a diverse and inclusive institution. Review of applications will commence on November 1, 2019, and continue until the position is filled. For information, call 765-983-1410.
