Visual Cultures

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.
