Fine Art
Lecturer/Senior Lecturer

This is an exciting opportunity for two contemporary artists with significant
exhibition/research profiles to join a department which has an excellent
research culture with substantial support for staff (rated 4), international
recognition, and outstanding facilities.  We are looking for two committed
practising artists whose work uses photographic media.  You will be aware of
changes in current photographic practice and will share the teaching and
development of chemical and digital technologies.  An awareness of contemporary
critical theory and the ability to work within the Fine Art team is essential.
A postgraduate degree in Fine Art or related discipline is desirable as is
higher education teaching experience.

Fine Art at Sheffield Hallam University consists of three linked courses with a
common philosophy, Painting/Printmaking, Sculpture and Time Based Art plus an
expanding MA in Fine Art.  Students have always been involved with emergent
technologies within contemporary art practice, including film, video and
digital imaging.

If you wish to informally discuss these posts, ring Steve Hawley, Subject
Leader in Fine Art on (0114) 225 2636.

They will take on the administration of photographic provision within the
