Mark Hallett Director of Studies
This year, Professor Hallett continued to work on two major exhibition projects, and on the publications that will accompany them.
With his colleague Dr Sarah Turner, he is co-curating an exhibition entitled The Great Spectacle: 250 Years of the Summer Exhibition, which will open at the Royal Academy in June 2018. Professor Hallett will co-author the accompanying catalogue with Dr Turner; he will co-edit a major online publication with Dr Turner and Dr Jessica Feather, also of the PMC, to be issued at the time of the display. This online publication will offer a year-by-year chronicle of the Academy’s famous Summer Exhibition, and will also incorporate a fully-digitised version of the entire run of Summer Exhibition catalogues, from 1769 to 2018.
Professor Hallett was also working on an exhibition he is curating entitled George Shaw: A Corner of a Foreign Field. The exhibition will open at the Yale Center for British Art in October 2018, before travelling to the Holburne Museum in Bath, England, in February 2019. This display will offer a comprehensive survey of the work of the leading contemporary British artist, George Shaw, and will be accompanied by a scholarly catalogue edited by Professor Hallett, and by a set of four short films on the artist and his work.
In September 2016, while on a visit to Australia, Professor Hallett spoke at a conference in Melbourne and gave a lecture at the Department of Art History at the University of Sydney. Over the course of the year, he spoke at workshops and conferences at the University of Oxford and the European University Institute in Florence. He also contributed an essay, co-written with Cassandra Albinson, to the catalogue for the Yale Center’s Enlightened Princesses exhibition, which opened in the spring of 2017. During the year, he also became a member of Tate Britain’s Advisory Council.
Martin Postle
The Deputy Director for Grants and Publications
Over the course of the year, Martin Postle continued to be involved in the initiation and planning of future courses for Yale undergraduate students at the Paul Mellon Centre. In spring 2017, he taught the course entitled British Art and Landscape, which involved visits to Stourhead, Dedham Vale, and a three-day field trip to Wales. Dr Postle continued to sit on the Centre’s Publications Committee, and to work with Professor Mark Hallett and Emily Lees, on the Centre’s forthcoming publications. In the summer of 2016 he assumed responsibility for the Centre’s Grants and Fellowships Programme, upon the retirement of Mary Smith, the Grants Administrator. Martin worked closely on maintaining and developing the programme with Harriet Fisher, Fellowships, Grants and Communications Officer, and Tom Scutt, Digital Manager. He attended the Advisory Council of the Paul Mellon Centre in Autumn 2016 and 2017, where he chaired the discussions on Grants and Fellowships. In February 2017 Dr Postle visited the Yale Center for British Art to participate in the evaluation of applications for the Scholars’ Programme.
Dr Postle actively pursued his research interests, centered principally on developing the Paul Mellon Centre research project, Collection and Display: The British Country House. Research involved site visits to Mount Stuart, Isle of Bute, Petworth, and a Study Day at Doddington Hall in October 2016, and at Castle Howard in March 2017. Dr Postle also gave a presentation in relation to the project at The Country House Revived?, the 15th Annual Historic Houses Conference, held at Dublin Castle on 19–21 June 2017. He continued to work with Anthony Spira of the MK Gallery, Milton Keynes, on co-curating the forthcoming exhibition, planned for 2109–2020, on George Stubbs. Dr Postle’s publications included a chapter on Richard Wilson’s painting, The White Monk, in James Clifton and Melina Kervandjian’s, The Golden Age of European Art. Celebrating Fifty Years of the Sarah Campbell Blaffer Foundation (Yale University Press).
Dr Postle continued to serve on the following committees and boards: Editorial Board, British Art Studies; Expert Advisor, Reviewing Committee on the Export of Works of Art; International Advisory Board, The British Art Journal; Governor of Dr Johnson’s House; Trustee of the Compton Verney Collection Settlement; Board Member of Aspire (touring exhibition project for Constable’s Salisbury Cathedral from the Meadows)
Sarah Victoria Turner Deputy Director for Research
In addition to her duties as the Deputy Director for Research at the Paul Mellon Centre and as Co-editor of British Art Studies, Dr Sarah Victoria Turner has continued to develop her profile as an active researcher and curator in the field of British art.
With Dr Kate Nichols (University of Birmingham), she co-edited “What is to Become of the Crystal Palace?”: The Crystal Palace after 1851 and this was published by Manchester University Press. This is the first book of academic essays on the Crystal Palace at Sydenham. Dr Turner continues to work with Professor Hallett on the research for a major exhibition in 2018 marking 250 years of the Royal Academy’s summer exhibitions.
In 2016, Dr Turner was appointed Visiting Senior Lecturer at the Courtauld Institute of Art. She taught an MA module Making the Modern: Art and Visual Culture in Britain, c. 1890–1970 in the 2016/17 academic year and will teach the module again in 2017/18. She continues to serve on the Courtauld Association Advisory Board. Dr Turner is a founder member of the Arts Council England’s British Art Network Steering Committee and continues to serve as a committee member.
With her Yale Center for British Art colleague, Martina Droth, Dr Turner co-organised two academic panels at professional conferences. The first of these was Editing Journals in a Digital Age, held by the Association of Research Institutes for Art History at the College Art Association’s annual conference (New York, February 2017). The second was Sculpture in Motion, held at the annual Association for Art History conference (University of Loughborough, April 2017). She was also invited to give a number of papers and presentations. These included: Mystical Moderns: Modern Art and the Mystical Revival in Early Twentieth-century Britain at the conference Modern Gods: Religion and British Modernism (The Hepworth, Wakefield, September 2016); Thinking Tantra (an exhibition talk at The Drawing Room, London, February 2017); and Christiana Herringham and the Ajanta Frescoes (research seminar held by Coventry University, 15 March 2017).
Jessica Feather Brian Allen Fellow
In addition to her ongoing work on specific Paul Mellon Centre projects, Dr Feather has continued to work as an active researcher and curator. In early 2017, she was invited to take up a guest curatorship at the Courtauld Institute Gallery, to work on their British drawings collection, with a view to curating a future exhibition at the Gallery. She will be taking up this curatorship in three one-week tranches over the course of 2017–2018.
Dr Feather continued to be involved in the curating of the British Museum exhibition Places of the Mind: British Watercolour Landscapes 1850–1950. Her chapter in the accompanying book was entitled “A new ‘golden age’? The ‘modern’ landscape watercolour” in Places of the Mind: British watercolour landscapes 1850–1950 (London: Thames & Hudson).
Dr Feather gave papers on Herbert Horne: Collecting British Art in 1890s Florence at the conference of the North American Victorian Society (Florence, May 2017) and was invited to present at the Paul Mellon Centre’s symposium Art and the Middlebrow (March 2017). She has given public talks at the Paul Mellon Centre, the British Museum, and Dulwich Picture Gallery. She has also had a conference paper accepted at the forthcoming College Art Association conference in Los Angeles for February 2018.
Over the period covered by this report, Dr Feather curated a small display at the Paul Mellon Centre on the subject of the country-house guidebook, which coincided with the launch of the Centre’s Country House project. She wrote the text for the accompanying pamphlet. Together with colleagues at Tate Britain and Birmingham Museums and Art Gallery, Dr Feather also set-up a sub-specialist group of the British Art Network dedicated to British drawings. The first of the group’s workshops, dedicated to topographical drawing, took place in March 2017.
Together with Dr Postle, Dr Feather co-taught a module for the Yale-inLondon students in the Spring semester on British Art and Landscape, which included a field trip to Wales.
Hana Leaper Paul Mellon Fellow Deputy Editor British Art Studies
In the past year, Dr Leaper has lectured and published extensively on British modernist art, particularly on Vanessa Bell and the Bloomsbury Group, and on Sybil Andrews and the Grosvenor School linocut artists. She supported the development of the Vanessa Bell exhibition at Dulwich Picture Gallery (Feb–June 2017), and contributed the essay Between London and Paris to the catalogue. Together with Nadia Hebson, she co-organised the conference Making Women’s Art Matter: New Approaches to the Careers and Legacies of Women Artists to coincide with the opening of the Vanessa Bell show. She is currently supporting the development of the forthcoming Tate St Ives exhibition Virginia Woolf: an Exhibition Inspired by Her Writings and has contributed the essay From Inheritance to Legacy: Virginia Woolf’s Place Within Networks of Women Creatives for the catalogue.
Her essay “Old-fashioned Modern”: Claude Flight’s Lino-cuts and Public Taste in the Interwar Period, was published in the journal Modernist Cultures in November 2016. The article examines the ambiguous middlebrow position of linocuts made by Flight and other artists of the Grosvenor School, and Flight’s utopian vision for mass modernism.
As a co-founder of the Early Career Researcher Network at the Paul Mellon Centre, and Deputy Editor of the Centre’s online journal British Art Studies, in November 2016 Dr Leaper co-organised the Digital Art Histories Symposium, which gathered a panel of art historians to share their experiences of developing digital projects with early career scholars of British art. She is an associate of several research networks, and is now a member of the Charleston Trust House and Exhibitions Committee.
