Research in Focus: Embodied Narratives

Region: London
Type: Talk
Cost: Free

Free lunchtime talk illuminating mental health and disability in an art school archive with Dr Liz Bruchet and UCL Art Museum.

Drawing on research undertaken as part of a UCL Research Institute for Collections Liberating the Collections Fellowship, Dr Liz Bruchet will speculate on the circumstances surrounding a black and white press photo, dated 1941 and preserved as part of the archive of the Slade School of Fine Art, London. The photograph is one of several case studies from which she is exploring the question, how can the archival records of an art school provide a richer picture of the relations between artist, art school, recordkeeping, mental and physical illness, ability and wellbeing?
