Mark Hallett Director of Studies
Mark Hallett’s main research focus this year was the exhibition George Shaw: A Corner of a Foreign Field, which he curated and which ran from October to December 2018 at the Yale Center for British Art, New Haven, and from February to May 2019 at the Holburne Museum, Bath. Further details of this research project are found elsewhere in this report.
He also began work on a new research project on the British artist Nigel Henderson (1917–1985), in preparation for a ‘Spotlight’ display of Henderson’s collages at Tate Britain in December 2019. This work included the development of a scholarly film on Henderson’s practice, which will be shown as part of the display.
Professor Hallett also conducted research on the artist Michael Andrews (1928–1995), the subject of his British Academy ‘Aspects of Art’ Lecture of July 2019.
Alongside editing and writing the bulk of the catalogue that accompanied the Shaw exhibition, Professor Hallett contributed a short essay to Britain in the World: Highlights from the Yale Center for British Art, edited by Martina Droth, Nathan Flis and Michael Hatt, and published in 2019 to commemorate Amy Meyers’ Directorship of the Yale Center for British Art.
Professor Hallett continued to serve as an external member of Tate Britain’s Advisory Council, and of the Courtauld Institute of Art’s Promotion Committee. He also acted as an academic advisor to Cambridge University’s History of Art department, in relation to the forthcoming Research Assessment Exercise.
Sarah Victoria Turner Deputy Director for Research
In September 2018, Sarah Victoria Turner was nominated and elected a full Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts in London for her contribution to research on British art and international artistic exchanges. Dr Turner travels widely on behalf of the Centre and has given talks and lectures at a number of venues across the world. In April 2019, she was invited by the University of Washington in Seattle to give a public lecture on the The Great Spectacle: 250 Years of the Summer Exhibition, the exhibition she co-curated with Mark Hallett at the Royal Academy of Arts in London (June to August 2018). She also led a workshop for graduate students and faculty members on digital publishing, drawing on her experience as a founder editor of the open-access journal British Art Studies and as an editor of The Royal Academy Summer Exhibition: A Chronicle, 1769–2018, an open-access and peerreviewed digital publication consisting of texts by over ninety authors. Dr Turner has published a number of books and essays in this period. These include: ‘Painting Portraits, Recording Lives’, Eileen Hogan: Personal Geographies (New Haven and London: Yale Center for British Art / Yale University Press, 2019), pp. 188–203; Enchanted Modernities: Theosophy, the Arts and the American West, co-edited with James Mansell and Christopher Scheer (Lopen: Fulgur, 2019) and Imagined Cosmopolis: Internationalism and Cultural Exchange, 1870s–1920s, co-edited with Charlotte Ashby, Grace Brockington and Daniel Laqua (Oxford: Peter Lang, in press).
Martin Postle Deputy Director for Grants & Publications
Martin Postle continued to be involved in operations and planning future courses for Yale undergraduates at the Centre. He also taught the Yale in London course, ‘The British Country House: Collecting and Display’ in the early summer of 2019. Dr Postle continued his role on the Centre’s Publications Committee, involving the evaluation of manuscripts and planning of future publications. He also continued his role in the Centre’s Grants and Fellowships programme, working closely with the Centre’s Fellowships, Grants & Communications Manager, Harriet Fisher. In autumn 2018 and spring 2019 he chaired the Grants and Fellowships section of the Advisory Council meeting. Throughout the year Dr Postle continued to make visits to regional museums to discuss research initiatives with staff. He also organised two workshops relating to curatorial research, in September 2018 in Sheffield and in October 2018 at the Holburne Museum, Bath. In the spring of 2019 Dr Postle took up the position of interim convenor of the British Art Network, including the organisation of the workshop titled ‘Curatorial EcoSystems’ held at Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums in June 2019.
Dr Postle’s research role at the Centre continued to be centred principally on the project he continues to lead, Collection and Display: The British Country House, working closely with a range of colleagues, including curators, academics and emerging scholars. He attended and chaired sessions at academic conferences throughout the year, and delivered presentations at Frenemies: Friendship, Enmity and Rivalry in British Art, 1769–2018 at the Royal Academy of Arts (July 2018), and at The Roman Art World in the 18th Century and the Birth of the Art Academy in Britain, held at the Accademia Nazionale di San Luca and the British School at Rome (December 2018).
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; the Council of the Attingham Trust; and Trustee of the Catalogue Raisonné of Works by Philip de László.
