My dissertation examined body image and sexuality in art by women. This was the result of making figurative, body-related work in the early 1980s, against the backdrop of fierce discussions about the representation of women’s bodies in art, advertising, and pornography.</p> <p>Feminism isn’t simply an academic discipline. It’s a rich and diverse resource for analysing the world, its cultures and politics. It provides a place of discourse from which we can begin to explore marginalised histories and try to describe the times and societies in which we live.</p> <p>Later, I achieved my PhD in Art Theory at the University of Leeds where I was privileged to be supervised by <a href="https://holbergprisen.no/en/holbergprisen/prize-winners/griselda-pollock">Professor Griselda Pollock</a>. She challenged and guided my thinking as I crafted my thesis on the importance of <a href="https://iep.utm.edu/irigaray/">Luce Irigaray</a>’s work for women artists – something I returned to in my book, <em>Reading Art, Reading Irigaray: The Politics of Art by Women</em> (2006).</p> <p>My first Lectureship (in Art History and Theory) was at the University of Ulster where I taught art theory to studio students. I spent 13 years in Belfast and became Head of the School for Art and Design in 2002 and gained my first Chair, as Professor of the Politics of Art.</p> <p>In 2005, I was appointed Dean of the College of Fine Arts and Professor of Art Theory and Criticism at Carnegie Mellon University (Pittsburgh PA, USA). The next seven years were very busy and productive.</p> <p>I joined the boards of The Andy Warhol Museum, Quantum Theatre, Silver Eye Centre for Photography, Greater Pittsburgh Arts Council and The Mattress Factory Museum. I also headed the Creative Entrepreneurs research project which worked to keep artists in post-industrial Pittsburgh.</p> <p>I headed back to the UK for family reasons, securing the position of Dean of the School of Art and Design at Middlesex University, in 2012. And, five years later I joined Loughborough where I’m the Director of the Centre for Doctoral Training in Feminism, Sexual Politics, and Visual Culture.</p> <p>Since returning, I have been on the advisory board for the AHRC-funded research project Black Arts and Modernism, and served a three-year term on the Higher Education Committee for the Association for Art History. I'm also an Expert Evaluator for Horizon Europe, and a Review Panel Member for the Instituto de Historia da Arte (Universidade Nova de Lisboa, Portugal).</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div><div class="space"></div><div class="card card--contact width width--100 has-image"> <div class="card__container"> <div class="card__person"> <div class="card__image-wrapper"> <img class="card__image" src="/media/media/research/newwebsite/experts/160x160/robinson-hilary-contact.jpg" alt="Photograph of Hilary Robinson"> </div> <div class="card__meta"> <h3 class="card__heading"> <a class="card__heading-link" href="/subjects/politics-international-studies/staff/hilary-robinson/"> <span class="card__heading-text">Professor Hilary Robinson</span> <span class="icon icon--embed icon--ui-arrow-right"> <svg class="icon__svg" width="16" height="16" viewBox="0 0 16 16" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><path d="M15.954 7.83c.005-.01.013-.016.017-.025a.33.33 0 0 0 0-.268c0-.01-.01-.016-.013-.026a.302.302 0 0 0-.062-.08l-.005-.01L7.552.09a.333.333 0 1 0-.44.5l7.67 6.75H.332a.333.333 0 0 0 0 .667h14.45l-7.67 6.75a.332.332 0 0 0 .22.583.33.33 0 0 0 .22-.083l8.335-7.333c.002 0 .003-.005.005-.007a.348.348 0 0 0 .062-.083z"/></svg> </span> </a> </h3> <div class="card__pronouns"> </div> <h4 class="card__subheading">Professor of Feminism, Art and Theory</h4> </div> </div> <ul class="list list--contact"> <li class="list__item list__item--tel"> <span class="icon icon--embed icon--ui-phone"> <svg class="icon__svg" width="16" height="16" viewBox="0 0 16 16"><path d="M10.953 9.783a1.955 1.955 0 0 1 2.767 0l1.707 1.706a1.955 1.955 0 0 1 0 2.764l-.936.937a2.76 2.76 0 0 1-3.472.35A37.77 37.77 0 0 1 .46 4.983 2.757 2.757 0 0 1 .807 1.51l.936-.937a1.958 1.958 0 0 1 2.768 0L6.22 2.28a1.958 1.958 0 0 1 0 2.768l-.346.345a37.92 37.92 0 0 0 4.734 4.735l.345-.345zm-5.226-7.01L4.02 1.063a1.262 1.262 0 0 0-1.784 0L1.3 2a2.06 2.06 0 0 0-.26 2.6A37.075 37.075 0 0 0 11.4 14.96c.82.543 1.907.434 2.6-.26l.935-.936a1.26 1.26 0 0 0 0-1.783l-1.707-1.703a1.26 1.26 0 0 0-1.783 0l-.57.57a.348.348 0 0 1-.466.02 38.486 38.486 0 0 1-5.277-5.274.348.348 0 0 1 .023-.466l.57-.568a1.263 1.263 0 0 0 0-1.785v-.002z" /></svg> </span> <a class="list__link" href="tel:+44 (0)1509 223072">+44 (0)1509 223072</a> </li> <li class="list__item list__item--email"> <span class="icon icon--embed icon--ui-envelope"> <svg class="icon__svg" width="24" height="16" viewBox="0 0 24 16" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><path d="M22.4 13.867V2.133c0-.59-.478-1.066-1.067-1.066h-19.2c-.59 0-1.066.477-1.066 1.066v11.734c0 .588.478 1.066 1.066 1.066h19.2c.59 0 1.067-.478 1.067-1.066zm1.067 0A2.134 2.134 0 0 1 21.333 16h-19.2A2.134 2.134 0 0 1 0 13.867V2.133C0 .955.955 0 2.133 0h19.2c1.178 0 2.134.955 2.134 2.133v11.734z"/><path d="M11.733 8.917L1.4.65a.533.533 0 1 0-.667.833L11.4 10.016a.533.533 0 0 0 .667 0l10.666-8.533a.533.533 0 1 0-.666-.833L11.733 8.917z"/></svg> </span> <a class="list__link" href="mailto:h.robinson@lboro.ac.uk">Send email</a> </li> </ul> </div> </div><div class="content-type content-type--heading content-type--h2"> <div class="content-type__container"> <h2 class="heading h2 center"> <span class="heading__text">Discover more</span> </h2> </div> </div><div class="cards"><div class="card card--default width width--50"> <div class="card__container"> <a class="card__link" href="https://www.lboro.ac.uk/schools/social-sciences-humanities/research/ahvc/fspvc-cdt/ "> <div class="card__content"> <h3 class="card__heading"> Centre for Doctoral Training: Feminism, Sexual Politics, and Visual Culture </h3> <p class="card__text">Exploring the deepening and rapidly changing global complexity of the relationship between feminist praxis and culture – in politics, the arts, and academia.</p> <span class="icon icon--embed icon--small icon--ui-external"> <svg class="icon__svg" width="16" height="16" viewBox="0 0 16 16" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><path d="M12.5 9.016a.5.5 0 0 0-.5.5v5.47H1v-11h5.5a.5.5 0 0 0 0-1h-6a.5.5 0 0 0-.5.5v12a.5.5 0 0 0 .5.5h12a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5v-5.97a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5z"/><path d="M15.5 0h-6a.5.5 0 0 0 0 1h4.793L3.146 12.146a.5.5 0 1 0 .707.707L15 1.707V6.5a.5.5 0 0 0 1 0v-6a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5z"/></svg> </span> </div> </a> </div> </div><div class="card card--default width width--50"> <div class="card__container"> <a class="card__link" href="https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/book/10.1002/9781118929179?fbclid=IwAR1BbqrsATvVQz_lLtUNbsT819pOxUyM569Df-p7Jud_FOz8vk56XrYTK1M"> <div class="card__content"> <h3 class="card__heading"> A Companion to Feminist Art </h3> <p class="card__text">Co-edited with Maria Buszeck, a recent book curates 30 original essays on contemporary feminist art by an international range of thinkers.
