Course summary
The MRes Visual Cultures is ideal if you have already completed an advanced course of study in art history and theory but would like to further develop your thought and research projects before studying at MPhil/PhD level.This programme is for students who have a special interest in contemporary visual culture. It offers a challenging, flexible, and advanced scheme of study that explores a range of theoretical perspectives that shape attitudes towards visual culture understood globally in the late 20th and early 21st century.The MRes qualifies you to carry out higher research, but is also a degree in its own right and can be tailored to suit your requirements.Invigorated by current research, the programme encourages students to engage in an exploratory interrogation of the relationships between critical theory and visual practice understood broadly.Students on the MRes Visual Cultures follow a taught programme consisting of two modules:The MPhil-Phd SeminarOne MA Special SubjectThe MPhil-PhD Seminar explores the practical and intellectual demands of carrying out advanced research in visual culture from a variety of perspectives, drawing both on the expertise and experience of colleagues and from key theoretical texts. It also explores the current research of first-year MPhil students. It is in this context that you will outline orally the questions, context, methodology, and structure of your future dissertation.You are also expected to attend the regular Visual Cultures Public Programme. These events give you the chance to participate in discussing the current work of different theorists, artists, curators and critics, as well as watch and discuss emergent and classic artists’ films and video.The MA Special Subjects are based on the current research interests of staff and enable you to focus on an aspect of contemporary art, cultural theory or contemporary thought that particularly interests you.
