Leah Clark

July 20, 2023

Leah Clark portraitLeah Clark (PhD Art History, 2009) is an Associate Professor?in History?of Art?and a Fellow of Kellogg College?as well as?Director of Studies in?History of Art at the University of Oxford. Her research explores the exchange and mobility of art objects in the 15th century. She is author of Collecting Art in the Italian Renaissance Court: ?Objects and Exchanges (Cambridge University Press, 2018) and co-editor of European Art and the Wider World 1350-1550 (Manchester University Press, 2017).

This month, Leah Clark published her new book (Cambridge University Press, 2023).

Courtly Mediators book coverIn?Courtly Mediators, Leah R. Clark investigates the exchange of a range of materials and objects, including metalware, ceramic drug jars, Chinese porcelain, and aromatics, across the early modern Italian, Mamluk, and Ottoman courts. She provides a new narrative that places Aragonese Naples at the center of an international courtly culture, where cosmopolitanism and the transcultural flourished, and in which artists, ambassadors, and luxury goods actively participated. By articulating?how and why transcultural objects were exchanged, displayed, copied, and framed, she provides a new methodological framework that transforms our understanding of the Italian Renaissance court. Clark's volume provides a multi-sensorial, innovative reading of Italian Renaissance art. It demonstrates that the early modern culture of collecting was more than a humanistic enterprise associated with the European roots of the Renaissance. Rather, it was sustained by interactions with global material cultures from the Islamic world and beyond.

Anthony Portulese (MA Art History, 2018) studies civil and common law at 捆绑SM社区. He recently published the article “A Phenomenology of Display: Monet’s L’Orangerie, the Panorama Rotunda, and the History of Proto-Installation Art” in the latest volume of Rutgers Art Review. Under the supervision of Prof. Mary Hunter, Anthony’s thesis focused on the intersection between French Impressionist Claude Monet’s painterly process for his Water Lilies series and his experimentation with innovations in exhibition architecture to create a unique artistic site and precursor to contemporary installation art practices. You can now read an abridged edition of that thesis at rar.rutgers.edu.


Yasmine Nachabe Taan

December 5, 2020

Yasmine Nachabe Taan Yasmine Nachabe Taan is Associate Professor in visual culture at the Lebanese American University. She is currently Visiting Professor at Bilkent University in Turkey. She received the Design History Society research grant to complete the writing of Abdulkader Arnaout: Designing as Visual Poetry (2017). She is the author of Saloua Raouda Choucair: Modern Arab Design (2019), and Hilmi el-Tuni, Evoking Popular Arab Culture (2014). Nachabe Taan is on the Editorial Board for Design and Culture.

Her recent publication, (2020) is an interdisciplinary study at the intersection of photography and gender studies in the middle east. Reading Marie al-Khazen’s Photographs is the first full-length study of an Arab woman photographer published in English. This research is important because there is little scholarly work done on photography in the Middle East, and even less on women photographers. It focuses on gender representation in the photographs of Marie al-Khazen, a Lebanese amateur photographer, and Karimeh Abbud, a professional photographer in Palestine during the period between the 1920s and 1930s. It provides a feminist reading of the images by analyzing the female photographer’s depiction of ‘modernity’ around Lebanon. By locating photographic practices within a particular cultural context, this book builds on earlier and more contemporary contributions to the study of photography in the Middle East. One of its unique contributions is to suggest new approaches to understanding the complexities of gender relations at the turn of last century in upper-class Lebanese society, by studying the life and works of an indigenous photographer of this rarefied social background.

Nachabe Taan received the FRQSC fund to complete her PhD research in Communication Studies at 捆绑SM社区 when she started her research on Marie al-Khazen’s Photographs (2007-2012) under the supervision of Will Straw and Michelle Hartman.

His primary research and teaching interests focus on media and cultural studies of modern Korea, race, gender and animal studies, cultural history of collective memory and trauma in East Asia, material culture and sensorial modernity, intellectual history of wartime Japan and postwar Korea, Korean contemporary art, and post/colonial historiography. Yongwoo Lee was Assistant professor/faculty fellow at the Department of East Asian Studies at New York University (2015-2018), joint postdoctoral fellowship at Leiden University’s IIAS (International Institute for Asian Studies) in Netherlands and Singapore’s ISEAS – Yusof Ishak Institute (Institute of South East Asian Studies) (2014-2015), Mellon Postdoctoral Fellow in Society for the Humanities at Cornell University (2010-2012) and Research Fellow in Interdisciplinary Information Studies at the University of Tokyo (2006-2007). He was a Senior Researcher at the Asia Culture Institute, Asia Culture Center of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, Republic of Korea (2013-2014).

His writings have been published in a number of books, journals and catalogs, including Superhumanity (University of Minnesota, 2018), 2 Oder 3 Tiger: Koloniale Geschichten, Medien Und Moderne (Matthes & Seitz Berlin, 2017), Black Mat Oriole (ROMA publications, 2019), Divided We Stand: 9th Busan Biennale 2018?(Sternberg Press, 2019), Hyundae Munhak (現代文學, 2017), and Asian Cinema journal. He is currently revising two book manuscripts, (1) Embedded Voices in Between Empires: The Cultural Formation of Korean Popular Music in Modern Times, which explores the historical trajectory of colonial mentalities and the genealogy of cultural modernities and Americanization in South Korea by recontextualizing popular music as a narrative of collective memories and mass trauma; and (2) Asian Divas: The Voices of Acoustic Modernities in Asia. His new book project aims to explore multifarious ways in which colonialism, Americanism, and Cold War fascism in East Asia shape modern Korean society and material culture and how postwar cultural forms and their representations were shaped and invented by various hegemonies--dictatorial governance, the implicit Japanese colonial legacy, and American military rule during the Cold War era chief among them--by examining South Korean popular songs, female performers and propaganda films in the 1960s and 1970s.

Caroline Bem

April 9, 2020

Starting May 2020, Caroline Bem is an Assistant Professor in the School of Social Communications at Saint Paul University, Ottawa. Prior to joining Saint Paul, Caroline was a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Turku within the Academy of Finland funded research project Sexuality and Play in Media Culture. In 2016-2018, she was a Postdoctoral Fellow within the German-Canadian research training group IRTG: Diversity. During this time, she was based at Université de Montréal, where she also taught graduate seminars on digital media theory and cinema.

Caroline conducted her doctoral work under the supervision of Will Straw and defended her thesis in late 2015. Since then, her research has focused on the interplay between the materiality, ethics, and aesthetics of media forms, which she examines through close engagement with films, video games, visual artworks, as well as narrative texts. Alongside this work, she is also invested in theorizing the emergence of relatively recent theoretical currents, such as intermediality and the New Formalism, and in contributing to the conversation on the place and future of the humanities within the contemporary academy. Her articles have appeared in Screen and JCMS, and in edited collections. She is the editor of a special issue of Intermédialités titled “Mapping (Intermediality)” (Fall 2017-Spring 2018) and the co-editor, with Susanna Paasonen, of the special issue “Play!” of Sexualities, forthcoming in 2020. Currently, she is at work on two book projects. “The Diptych: A Moveable Form” (manuscript near completion) will offer the first detailed account of the diptych in the arts, book culture, and time-based media, as well as within philosophical and political systems of thought. “Feeling Playing Sex” will examine the aesthetic, affective and political significance of a range of playable pornographic objects


Isabelle Masse

November 13, 2019

Isabelle Masse received her Ph.D. in art history in 2019 and is currently pursuing a two-year FRQSC postdoctoral fellowship at the UCLA Department of Art History (2019–21). She specializes in eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century drawing, particularly pastel, and holds additional expertise in contemporary photography. Building on experience as a professional portrait painter, her academic research highlights the significance of the medium, and materiality broadly speaking, in the analysis of portraiture.

Her postdoctoral project “Itinerant Portraitists in North America: Mobility, Practice, Transmission, 1776–1812” examines the production and commercialization of portraiture in light of migratory movements. It explores the practices of three artists who traveled across North America between 1776 and 1812: John Ramage (ca.1748–1802), Eliab Metcalf (1785–1834), and Gerrit Schipper (1770/75–1825). Diverging from portraiture historiographical tradition, this book-length study raises questions related to specific concerns of art makers, including art techniques, transport logistics, and promotional strategies. It shows how the constraints and freedoms inherent to nomadism defined portrait practices, and with them, the artworks themselves. Concurrently, this project traces nascent Canadian-American cultural interaction through the lens of artist mobility and develops a perspective that emphasizes the role of materiality as a driving force of globalization.

Isabelle Masse’s research has been published in the peer-reviewed journals RACAR and Journal of Canadian Art History, and presented at conferences, such as those of the College Art Association (CAA), the Nineteenth-Century Studies Association (NCSA), and the International, American, and Canadian Societies for Eighteenth-Century Studies (ISECS, ASECS, CSECS). Recently, in preparation for her book manuscript on itinerant artists, she undertook archival work at the American Antiquarian Society with the support of a Last Fellowship. Further research funded by an ASECS-Clark Fellowship will be carried out in the upcoming months at the UCLA Clark Library.

Christina Smylitopoulos

June 19, 2017

?Dr. Christina Smylitopoulos is??in the School of Fine Art and Music at the University of Guelph. She earned her PhD in AHCS under the supervision of Dr. Richard Taws (UCL) in 2011. Winner of the Arts Insight Dissertation Award, Christina’s dissertation considered eighteenth-century British graphic satire and the British colonial project in India. She is currently working on a book about the publisher, print and book seller Thomas Tegg’s early nineteenth-century intervention in British graphic satire. Tegg was a major patron and producer of British graphic satire, yet his commercial interest in the genre has prevented him from being considered a serious figure in book and art history. He was pejoratively dubbed a “pioneer” of publishing because his motivation in the trade was in selling books and not in “the encouragement of authors” (The Times, 1848). Christina’s book will reposition his work, currently characterized as cheap products from an opportunistic publisher, to what closer study reveals them to be: collaborative multimedia objects of critical art intended for a new audience, with a surprising reach of influence.

Prior to her position at Guelph, Christina was a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the Yale Center for British Art, a Social Science and Humanities Research Council of Canada Doctoral Fellow and a Paul Mellon Centre for Studies in British Art Junior Fellow. She has received research grants from, among others, the Huntington Library, the Swann Foundation for Caricature and Cartoon (Library of Congress), and the Houghton Library at Harvard University. Her essays have appeared in Revue d'art canadienne/Canadian Art Review (RACAR); The British Art Journal, Eighteenth-Century Life, and Word and Image in the Long Eighteenth Century: An Interdisciplinary Dialogue; she has reviewed for Oxford Art Journal, RACAR, The Historian, and caa.reviews. Christina has an essay in L. Hannan and P.J. Corfield (eds), Hats Off, Gentlemen: The Changing Arts of Communication in the Eighteenth Century (edited collection forthcoming with Les ?ditions Honoré Champion, 2016) and an edited collection Agents of Space: Eighteenth-Century Art, Architecture, and Visual Culture (forthcoming with CSP, 2016). An award winning teacher (College of Arts; Teaching Excellence Award, 2014-2015), Christina delivers graduate and undergraduate courses on art and architecture of the long eighteenth century (1680s-1830s) and art historiography.?

Danielle Shapiro

June 2, 2017

Danielle Shapiro photo Danielle Shapiro is the author of (Minnesota, 2016). The book centers on John Vassos (1898-1985), a Greek American artist and pioneering industrial designer who specialized in designing forms for media technologies which had no prior shape. More than a half century before the touch screen, Vassos enthused over the tactile experience of using a radio and a television. His drawings of hands touching knobs and his writings on the radio dial reveal his focus on the intuition of how we communicate with our machines. Vassos understood that the act of radio listening engaged a broad ensemble of senses. Based on her dissertation in Communication Studies written under the supervision of Prof. Will Straw, Danielle’s book explores the broader relationship between Vassos’s work and American culture. By historicizing the birth of the media he designed, the book stimulates thinking about how media devices have entered as much the home as the broadcast studio. Danielle will be speaking at the about her book on June 14 at 6pm.

Since completing her PhD in AHCS in 2005, Danielle has held a teaching fellowship at Harvard University, a Fulbright Award, postdoctoral fellowships at the Archives of American Art and the Smithsonian American Art Museum, and at the Wolfsonian Museum. From 2008 to 2014, she was a Senior Program Officer at the National Endowment for the Humanities where she oversaw grant projects for museum exhibitions and documentary films with strong humanities scholarship. She was a curatorial assistant at the Cooper-Hewitt Smithsonian National Museum of Design, which spawned her career long interest in industrial design. Among other venues, her work has appeared in Design Issues, the Archives of American Art Journal,?the Encyclopedia?of 20th Century Photography, and the Encyclopedia of Documentary Film. She is particularly excited about a new project of an exhibit of John Vassos’s work, possibly at a Smithsonian Museum.?

Gretchen King

June 30, 2015

?This fall, Gretchen King will begin a post-doctoral fellowship with Dr. Geneviève A. Bonin at Université d'Ottawa, sponsored by the Fonds de recherche du Québec - Société et culture (FRQSC).?Under the supervision of Prof. Becky Lentz, Gretchen has written a dissertation entitled "The radical pedagogy of community radio: the case of Radio al-Balad 92.4 FM, community media audiences and political change in Jordan."

Evolved from her PhD thesis, Gretchen’s post-doctoral project is “Listening to community radio audiences: assessing the impact of community broadcasting and cultivating the sustainability of local news in Canada.” The project foregrounds the significant role that Canada has played since the 1920s in the community broadcasting sector. Described as the birthplace of community radio, Canada now boasts some two hundred community radio stations operating as participatory, non-profit media institutions providing access to radio. While an influential report commissioned by Heritage Canada in 2007 stressed the significant role played by community radio in expressing dissenting views, providing opportunities for community participation in content-production and other public goods, that report also neglected the inclusion of audience perspectives or any rigorous assessment of impact—a serious lacuna.

Gretchen’s post-doctoral research will prioritize the perspectives of listeners, whose experiences are vital to ascertaining how effective community radio stations have been in producing community news programming and thus fulfilling its official mandate of “meeting the needs and interests of the communities served.” Aimed at audiences both within and far beyond the academy, the project will provide the first in-depth, qualitative data on the impact of community radio on civic engagement in Canada by analyzing personal narratives contributed by audiences, interviews facilitated among community radio news producers, and completed station surveys. Second, Gretchen will generate DIY-type audience research tools and listener engagement recommendations through which community radio stations can be more accountable to listeners and funders. Third, the project will yield a sustainable framework and best practices for cultivating accessible and inclusive community radio news programming based on the experiences of listeners, producers, and station staff. Finally, Gretchen will submit her research on the impact community radio on civic participation in Canada for publication in academic journals including the Canadian Journal of Communication and Global Media and Communication.
