Your Role...
The PostDoc position is part of the FNR-funded project "Tracing the legacy of Edward Steichen: A glocal approach to the international reception and national heritagisation of the "Family of Man" exhibition" (FomLeg) which is realized in collaboration with the Centre National de l'Audiovisuel (CNA). This research project aims at problematizing the audience response to one of the most famous photographic exhibitions of the 20th century using a glocal history approach. In combining global, national, and local processes of circulation, translation, and appropriation of photographs, the project aims at retracing and understanding the itinerancy of the exhibition and its audience responses. While a separate PhD project will focus on the international reception of FoM, the PostDoc research is intended to study the heritization process of Edward Steichen in his native country Luxembourg where the exhibition has acquired the status of Unesco World Heritage. It aims at exploring the history of private and public collections linked to the artist within the political and socio-cultural contexts of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg.
Next to academic publications the project will produce innovative forms and formats of transmedia storytelling, e.g. through the development of a deep mapping visualisation of the global circulation of FoM, combining a traceable itinerary of the exhibition around the world with virtual exhibits of those places of display studied as historical case studies in the project. In addition, a graphic novel will offer a research-based narrative about Steichen and the emergence of FoM as one of the most iconic photograph exhibitions of the 20th century.
What we expect from you…
- PhD in history, cultural anthropology, media studies or related field
- Expertise in the field of history of photography / media history is an asset
- Good digital literacy and interest in transmedia storytelling; experience in script-writing is an asset
- Good language proficiency in English, French, and German; Luxembourgish is an asset
- Team working spirit and participation in outreach activities of the C2DH
