AHRC Collaborative PhD Students working with Tate 2006
I am delighted to announce that Tate has been joined by four new PhD students working on collaborative PhDs funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council.
Katie Croll-Knight, University of Essex, will focus in her thesis on the role of the artist in relation to dada and surrealism, and will contribute to the Duchamp, Man Ray, Picabia exhibition, Tate Modern, 2008 (Tate supervisor Jennifer Mundy). Corrina Dean, London School of Economics, will be working on ‘Tate Modern: Developing a Cultural Quarter’ (Tate supervisor Victoria Walsh). Caroline Donnellan, London School of Economics, will be working on ‘Vision and Patronage: The Building of Tate Modern’ (Tate supervisor Victoria Walsh). Alexandra MacGilp, University of Reading, will focus on the London art market 1880-1950 (Tate supervisor Robert Upstone).
This is in addition to the two doctoral studentships that began last year. Phillippa Allsopp, Courtauld Institute of Art, has been working on the exhibition Turner and the Masters, Tate Britain, 2009 (Tate supervisor Martin Myrone). Robert Knifton, Manchester Metropolitan University, has been working on the exhibition Centre of the Creative Universe: Liverpool and the Avant-Garde, Tate Liverpool 2007 (Tate supervisor: Christoph Grunenberg).
