The National Gallery’s Women and the Arts Forum aims to shed light on women, past and present, who have contributed to the nation’s cultural life, especially through association with the National Gallery’s collection. Each year, the Forum hosts The Anna Jameson Lecture and a public-facing event; for our bicentenary, we are organizing two conferences. We are looking for a dynamic researcher to assist with the administration associated with the annual lecture and conferences, with researching different aspects of women at the Gallery over its 200-year history for presentation at both conferences; and with developing a new section of the Gallery’s website to host all relevant material for the Women and the Arts Forum.
To support Dr Avery-Quash, Senior Research Curator (History of Collecting) with the delivery of the Women and the Arts Forum programme by assisting with: (1) administration associated with the Anna Jameson Lectures (and their subsequent publication as downloadable PDFs via the Gallery’s website); (2) undertaking a range of research projects investigating different aspects of women at the Gallery over its 200-year history (e.g. staffing in different departments) and presenting new research at the 2024/25 conferences; (3) the logistics of both conferences; and (4) the development of a new section of the Gallery’s website to host all relevant material for the Women and the Arts Forum.
