Teaching

Our students benefit from the weaving of research into teaching at all levels.

Our students benefit from the weaving of research into teaching at all levels, including undergraduate courses on

  • ‘Forms of Life in Modern and Contemporary Art’, (4th year Hons, taught by Tamara Trodd),
  • ‘Radical Nature: Art and Ecology from Beuys to the Present’ (4th year Hons, taught by Andrew Patrizio), and
  • ‘Sexual Politics and the Image’ (taught by Angela Dimitrakaki).

Postgraduate courses include ‘The Creative City’ (taught by Harry Weeks), and ‘Art and Society in Contemporary-China’ (taught by Chia Ling Yang).

Two postgraduate programmes benefit directly from this research: the taught MSc Modern and Contemporary Art and the MSc by Research in Collections and Curating Practices.

Staff affiliated to the research group supervise a wide range of doctoral research projects on subjects ranging from contemporary technology and visual cultures, to figurations of the border.

The research group runs a programme of activities as part of an exciting research environment for students and staff.

It meets normally once per academic term to discuss developments in scholarship across the core themes.

We welcome staff and students from across the University with an interest in the subject.
