The Department of Art and Culture Studies in the Faculty of Humanities is looking for an Assistant professor ‘Memory and Museums’, to build upon and extend existing research strengths on this topic within AHM and the University of Amsterdam
Research Priority Area, the Amsterdam Centre Cultural Heritage and Identity (ACHI).
You will be located in the Chair Group Modern and Contemporary Art History. The post holder is envisaged to contribute to teaching at all levels in relevant domains. Among the relevant BA programmes for which the post holder will likely
be asked to contribute e.g. by providing interdisciplinary core or elective module(s) are Art History, especially Modern and Contemporary Art History, and also Literary and Cultural Analysis and Cultural Studies. Exhibition histories and curatorial discourses
around questions of memory will be relevant. On the MA level the programmes ‘Museum Studies’, ‘Heritage and Memory Studies’, ‘Curating Art and Cultures’, ‘Arts, Culture and Politics’ and Research MA ‘Art Studies’ (with its Artistic Research specialization)
are relevant for this job. Several of these programmes offer internships and thus collaborate with all large museums and many cultural and heritage sites in the Netherlands.
