  Museums and industry: Long Histories of Collaboration - Postdoc position

  The Laboratoire d’études et de recherche sur le monde anglophone, Aix-Marseille University (AMU), is shortly to commence a major academic research project, “Museums and industry: Long Histories of Collaboration” (MaILHoC). Working with partners in the UK, Spain, and Norway, the aim of the project is to explore the impacts of industrial patronage – with a particular focus on the ethical dimensions of this relationship – on European museums of science and industry in both comparative and historical context. The project will compare insights drawn from a wide spread of historical case studies with a range of contemporary workshops exploring the ethics of industrial patronage. This position is based at AMU’s Humanities Faculty in Aix-en-Provence. The successful candidate will carry out research in archives in France and Britain while also participating in events organised by the various partners.

  L’expérience sensorielle dans les expositions d’art au XVIIIe siècle

  Session 2 : L’expérience de la visite, du spectateur au critique

  Le colloque L’expérience sensorielle dans les expositions d’art au XVIII^e siècle s’inscrit en finalité d’un projet de recherches financé par le conseil de recherche en sciences humaines du Canada (2018-2020) et mené sur la question du corps sensoriel. Il vise ainsi à définir la manière dont l’expérience du corps sensoriel des visiteurs se modèle lors de la visite des expositions d’art temporaires au moment où celles-ci émergent et s’établissent en Europe comme une pratique sociale nouvelle. Cette connaissance devrait permettre de mieux saisir le cheminement et la sensorialité inhérente des visiteurs de musées et de galeries à travers les siècles, et ce, jusqu’à aujourd’hui.
