Art History/Global Visual Cultures - Assistant Professor Tenure Track
California State University, San Bernardino
 California State University, San Bernardino Overview The Department of Art & Design at California State University, San Bernardino invites applications from a diverse group of qualified applicants for a tenure track position at the rank of Assistant Professor to begin August 2020. The Department of Art & Design is changing to a semester calendar in Fall 2020, and will have new curriculum across all of its programs in the department. To meet this change the art history curriculum for art history majors and the classes for our studio art, design and visual studies majors will also change dramatically, requiring an innovative and dynamic new art historian to join our team. The candidate will be contributing to the new degree program in art history to be titled BA in Art History & Global Cultures. We seek an art historian whose approach is from a global perspective and whose research focuses on at least one cultural history of art outside of the European context from any historical period. The candidate will have been updated in the social, political and philosophical contexts of art history's global art world and issues associated with globalization, including discourses in the postcolonial and the decolonial; gender, race, and identity; critical theory, and the structures of art history and exhibitions/museums. The candidate will be teaching classes in art historical, museum studies, and related methodologies, research methods, as well as thematic classes. The degree program in art history will be titled BA in Art History & Global Cultures, and so we seek an art historian who has a global outlook, and whose research engages with the global art world as well as issues associated with globalization.
