Kenyon College, a highly selective, nationally ranked liberal arts college in central Ohio, invites applications for a Visiting Assistant Professor of Early Modern Art History. This is a two-year appointment that will begin in August 2023. The successful candidate will specialize in the art and architecture of the early modern world (c. 1400–1800). We are interested in teacher-scholars who can offer creative ways to engage with the Art History Department’s Visual Resources Center, our Study Collection, and regional art museums located in Columbus and Cleveland.   

The successful applicant will be able to teach broadly in their field. The selected candidate will teach five total classes. In addition to teaching ARHS 111 Introduction to Western Art: Renaissance to Contemporary, the selected candidate will teach four additional courses that emphasize their research and teaching specialties. Applicants should complement, not duplicate, current expertise of the department. The selected candidate may have the opportunity to provide mentorship to honors projects. 

The successful candidate will have a Ph.D. in hand at the time of the appointment. Candidates who are ABD with a completion date by August 2023 will be considered. Experience teaching as the instructor of record in college-level courses is required. We seek scholars who can demonstrate a record of undergraduate teaching excellence, preferably in a liberal arts setting.
