PhD Funding: Artistic Re-enactments of Performance Art as Vehicles of

Cultural Transfer in Eastern Europe since 1960

Department of Film and Visual Culture, University of Aberdeen

Supervisor: Dr. Amy Bryzgel, Senior Lecturer in Film and Visual Culture,

University of Aberdeen (a.bryzgel at abdn.ac.uk)

Application Deadline: March 21, 2017



Applications are invited for PhD research topics that focus on artistic

re-enactments of performances from across the former communist and

socialist countries of Central, Eastern and South-Eastern Europe in

recent artistic practice. There are numerous examples of artistic

re-enactments across the region, providing scope for a range of

dissertation topics. Projects can include comparative studies, for

example, of the relevance of re-enactments in one local tradition versus

that of another; or single-country studies of a number of re-enactments

being staged in one context. Dissertations will address the following

research questions: what are the various functions of artistic

re-enactments of performances in Eastern Europe? How do these functions

compare with current understandings of re-enactment in the West? How can

re-enactments be used to access a lost or inaccessible history (such as

performance art in Eastern Europe)? Also welcome are proposals that

consider revisiting culturally relevant or historically significant

places by artists or within the context of artistic re-enactments.

  Selection will be made on the basis of academic merit. Individuals

with a strong research background in the field of Eastern European

contemporary art and/or performance art, from either an art history or

visual culture background, are encouraged to apply. Applicants should

have the necessary language skills needed to undertake the proposed

research, and should consider funding sources for travel to conduct

field research abroad if it is necessary to the proposed project.



The project is funded by a University of Aberdeen Elphinstone

Scholarship, which covers the cost of tuition fees only, whether Home,

EU or Overseas, and will be awarded through an open competition.



Interested applicants should contact Dr. Amy Bryzgel with a project

proposal of no more than 2,000 words, including discussion of Aims and

Objectives, Research Questions, Research Context, Methodology and

Critical Approach.



Deadline for all applications: 21 March 2017
