News from the Stuart Hall Foundation

Development Year
July 2016

Since we saw many of you at our Foundation Launch event at the BFI on the South Bank in November we have been busy building our resources, talking to partners and developing our programme of work. We have been overwhelmed by the enormous support you have shown the Stuart Hall Foundation and your commitment has enabled us to build on the plans we set out last year. What follows is an update on our progress to date – we hope to have more news, including details of some exciting upcoming events, soon.

Scholarships and Fellowships
Acutely aware of the obstacles to achievement in higher education faced by young people from culturally diverse and disadvantaged backgrounds – evidenced by admissions data and the lack of diversity among academic staff – the trustees have initiated a number of partnerships with universities to continue Professor Stuart Hall’s life-long commitment to teaching.

Goldsmiths, University of London
Following the inauguration of Stuart Hall Foundation Scholarships at Goldsmiths, University of London, Annie Goh, PhD Scholar and Martin Smith, Foundation Scholar have been developing their research and studies during 2015/16. Martin has completed his Foundation Year in Media and Communications and is proceeding to the first year of the undergraduate course. Annie has continued her exploration into the theories and empirical findings from the emerging field of archaeoacoustics to develop a theory of sonic knowledge. Annie has also secured full funding for both fees and living allowance from the CHASE Consortium for years 2 and 3 of her PhD. The success of her application will enable Goldsmiths to offer two new Stuart Hall PhD Scholarships and a second Foundation Scholarship this year. The new scholars will be announced in September.

Harvard University
We have appointed two Stuart Hall Fellows in collaboration with the Hutchins Center of American and African American Research at Harvard University. Petrine Dacres, who will begin her Fellowship in the autumn, and Jenny Sharpe whose Fellowship will commence in October 2017.

Petrina is the Head of the Art History Department at the Edna Manley College of the Visual and Performance Arts in Kingston, Jamaica. She has served as a curator at the campus art gallery, the Cage, and at the National Museum, Jamaica and the National Gallery of Jamaica. She specialises in public sculpture, memory and memorial practices, and Caribbean and Black Diaspora Art. Her publications include: Monuments and Meaning (2004), 'But Bogle was a Bold Man': Vision, History and Power for a New Jamaica (2009), and the forthcoming The Statue in the Park: Commemorating Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee in Jamaica (2016).

Jenny Sharpe will begin her Fellowship in 2017. Jenny studied with Professor Stuart Hall at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in the summer of 1983. She received a PhD in Comparative Literature from the University of Texas at Austin and is currently Professor of English, Comparative Literature and Gender Studies at UCLA. She is author of Allegories of Empire: The Figure of Woman in the Colonial Text (1993), considered a foundational book in postcolonial feminist studies, and Ghosts of Slavery: A Literary Archeology of Black Women’s Lives (2002). Her research project, “Immaterial Archives: Lost Pasts, Salvaged Futures,” derives from Caribbean art and literature, and a philosophy of history that contends with archival loss.

University of Sussex
Two new opportunities at the University of Sussex in the School of Media, Film and Music will begin in October 2016: a Masters Scholarship offered to an exemplary UK or overseas graduate, and an international Stuart Hall Associate Fellowship offered to an accomplished practitioner, academic or artist pursuing ideas related to the varied concerns of Professor Stuart Hall’s work. The visiting Associate Fellow will be in residence at the university for two weeks to run a masterclass, undertake research and teaching, and present a public lecture.

Ruhr-Universitat Bochum and Technische Universitat Dortmund
We will shortly offer two Stuart Hall Cultural Studies PhD Scholarships at Ruhr-Universitat Bochum and Technische Universitat Dortmund in Germany. The developments of these scholarships have grown out of conversations between Foundation trustees Catherine Hall, Gregor McLennan and Michael Rustin and the universities during the international conference, Wrestling with the Angels: Exploring Stuart Hall’s Theoretical Legacy at Dortmund in February this year.

University of East London
A new Stuart Hall, three-year, PhD Scholarship funded jointly by the University of East London and the Foundation, will be offered to a student working either in the School of Arts and Digital Industries or the School of Social Sciences, and will start in autumn 2017.

Birkbeck, University of London
A new Stuart Hall, three-year, PhD Scholarship funded jointly by Birkbeck and the Foundation will be offered to a student beginning their research in autumn 2017.

Merton College, Oxford University
Merton College, TORCH (The Oxford Research Centre in the Humanities) and the Stuart Hall Foundation are working collaboratively to develop a new Stuart Hall PhD Scholarship in the Humanities for October 2017 entry.

Stuart Hall Foundation trustees would like to warmly thank all our academic partners for their financial commitment and the generous spirit in which they have developed these schemes. We are currently in negotiation with a number of other institutions that Professor Stuart Hall was connected with and hope to be able to announce more partnerships later in the year.

Fundraising and Resource Development
We are developing a business plan, three-year budget and fundraising strategy to ensure the long term sustainability of the Foundation. Our fundraising efforts before, at and since the Launch have raised over £150,000. 2016 is a development year and we are busy applying to a number of Trusts and Foundations for funding to support our future programme plans and the post of an Executive Director.

We are delighted to announce that the Foundation has recently been awarded £60,000 over 3 years from the Garfield Weston Foundation for programmes and resource development. The Hollick Family Charitable Trust in partnership with Honeywell International has donated £35,000 to the Foundation to support a scholarship for an individual who would not otherwise have the opportunity to study at university, and plans for this scholarship are underway.

Other funding applications are in the pipeline. The trustees would like to thank everyone who has donated to the Foundation to help us get started. We value your support and hope that you will continue to fund us as we progress.

New Website
We are currently working with web development company At Work who are designing and building new components of the Foundation’s website, which will enable the publication of more content, including writings by Professor Stuart Hall, details of upcoming events and extracts of work being produced by the Stuart Hall Scholars, Fellows and Artists-in-Residence. The new website will be launched in autumn 2016.

Public Programme and Events
Our public programme, which will include screenings, talks and ticketed events, commences this autumn.

Playing with Capital
Playing with Capital – a screening and panel discussion in collaboration with University of the Arts, London will be held at the Platform Theatre, Central Saint Martins in October. PLAYTIME, the multi-screen film projection by our patron Isaac Julien, which explores the impact of late capitalism through a number of individual stories set in different parts of the globe, will be the starting point for the panel discussion. An invitation and further details will be sent out in the coming weeks.

Unfinished Conversations
In addition to the public programme, we shall continue our series of Unfinished Conversations – smaller discussions for invited colleagues – following our first Unfinished Conversation: Race Representation and Visual Culture a year ago at Rivington Place.

Our second event in the series, taking place this autumn will explore the urgent need for intergenerational collaborations and activism in the current political climate, highlighted during discussions at 6x60, an event organised by Skin Deep in April. Skin Deep is a London-based organisation and magazine covering issues surrounding race and culture. The organisation also acts as a counter movement to ways the mainstream media often simultaneously racialise and depoliticise culture. 6x60 brought six collectives together to share their work, ideas and thinking. Following their participation and discussions at 6x60, Foundation trustees Julian Henriques and David A. Bailey are developing this Unfinished Conversation with Shake!, Platform and Skin Deep, and other political and cultural collectives of young people.

Arts Programme
In parallel with and connected to our programme of fellowships and scholarships, we are also developing an arts programme, which builds on Professor Stuart Hall’s immense support of visual artists, filmmakers and photographers, and his influence on public policy in the visual arts and education. The programme will include residencies, publications, awards, and commissioned art works.

Stuart Hall Library Artist’s Residency in partnership with Iniva (Institute of International Visual Arts)
Throughout the spring the Foundation has been in discussion with Iniva about an artists’ residency programme at the Stuart Hall Library at Rivington Place, London.

A new, three-month residency will allow a visual artist the space to think about some of the key themes related to the work of Iniva and the Foundation, including: the language of the diaspora, culture, identity and archiving. The artist will have an opportunity to excavate the Library collection, including Professor Stuart Hall’s writing, and produce a creative outcome. Full details of the residency and application process will be available in mid-July. For further information please contact us at: [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>

We are extremely grateful for all your generous support and encouragement as we continue to realise our mission and vision for the Stuart Hall Foundation. We look forward to sharing more details later in the year, and seeing you at future events.

With warm wishes, Sue, Gilane and the Trustees
