Lecturers BA Fine Art Studio Practice

About the School
In the School of Art we specialise in making, curating and writing about contemporary art in a dynamic, critical and interdisciplinary environment. We have a world leading reputation, and work with a network of artists, curators, galleries and museums both in London and internationally to create an inspiring and dynamic place in which to study and develop an artistic practice. Many graduates of the School are among the most recognised names working in art today.

The School has an international reputation for exceptional research and teaching in Fine Art that enables us to establish and maintain links with many prestigious institutions and university art departments across the world. This, together with the cosmopolitan nature of the student body, provides unique opportunities for students to develop cross-cultural collaborative projects.

About the Roles
We are looking for three artists to join the BA Fine Art Studio Practice team. There are three posts on offer: one 0.5 (17.5 hours a week) and two 0.3 posts (10.5 hours a week). You will make a significant contribution to the delivery, organisation and development of the BA Fine Art programme. You will have your own tutor group of students from all years of the programme and, together with two or three other tutors, will be part of a larger Convenor group. In addition to tutorial responsibilities to the students within the Convenor group you will have time and opportunity to offer sessions of your own devising that draw on your specialist experience. You will be involved in assessments, in the provision of feedback to your students, and in the interviewing of applicants to the programme. Please indicate in your application whether you are interested in one or both of the fraction sizes on offer.

About the Candidates
You will be an artist with a professional record of international standing, will have experience of teaching in HE Fine Art and be responsive to the varied and specific needs of those on this strongly student-centred course. The School expects that you will have an active and internationally recognised research profile, and that you will produce research outputs to be submitted to the REF. In this respect, please note the application requirements specified in the job description (available on the university's website, accessed by the 'Apply' button) under the section Method of Application. You will demonstrate a serious engagement with your own practice, and an understanding of current and emerging theories, concepts and debates within the field of contemporary art. The Department encourages applications from Black and Global Majority and LGBTQ+ candidates.
