Entries now open for the 2021 Research in Focus Prize for PhDs and ECRs

The AAANZ is pleased to offer an opportunity for current and recently-completed PhD students to share their research and to be considered for the $1000 prize supported by Taylor and Francis. This prize ran in 2020 and the winner and shortlist can be viewed here: Research in Focus Winner and  Highly Commended 2020

The prize will be announced along with the AWAPAs in December 2021.

About the Prize

Would you like the opportunity to reach fellow researchers in art history, curatorship and art practice? Want to present your exciting research in a timely fashion and raise your profile?

Due to ongoing impacts of the Covid, AAANZ is replacing the annual PhD Prize that usually runs during the annual conference with a ‘Research in Focus’ competition to take place virtually. This competition is open to all current PhD students, recently submitted PhDs and early career researchers within 3 years of the award of their PhD. The aim of this competition is to support and reward excellence in research communication about art history and practice-led research.

For full details, please see this page – Research in Focus Guidelines

The winner will receive $1000 sponsored by Taylor and Francis.
