| dbo:abstract | Roger Harold Benjamin FAHA (born 18 June 1957) is professor of Art History at the University of Sydney. Benjamin is an Australian art historian and curator who was born and raised in Canberra, where he attended the Canberra Grammar School. Moving to Melbourne, he trained in Fine Arts and Philosophy at the University of Melbourne (1975–79) before travelling to the United States for his MA (1981) and PhD (1985) at Bryn Mawr College, undertaking research in Paris. His first book and articles in French, British, and American journals focused on Matisse and the art of the Fauves (Matisse’s "Notes of a Painter": Criticism, Theory and Context, 1891-1908 Ann Arbor, 1987). Benjamin moved back to Australia with his appointment as lecturer in Fine Arts at the University of Melbourne, where he taught for 14 years (1984–98). In 1995, he co-curated the travelling retrospective Matisse for the Queensland Art Gallery and, in 1997, curated Orientalism: Delacroix to Klee at the Art Gallery of New South Wales. His long-standing interest in Orientalist art culminated in Orientalist Aesthetics: Art, Colonialism and French North Africa, 1880-1930 (Berkeley 2003), which received the prestigious Robert Motherwell Book Award in 2004. Benjamin's exhibition Renoir and Algeria was organised by the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute before travelling to Dallas and Paris, where it was reincarnated as De Delacroix à Renoir: L'Algérie des peintres (2003). Benjamin moved from Melbourne to Canberra as a research fellow at the Centre for Cross-Cultural Research at ANU (1998–2001). His work on contemporary Australian art includes the exhibition Juan Davila (Sydney & Melbourne, 2006) and numerous writings on Tim Johnson. He has taught on Aboriginal art since 1992, and in 2009 curated Icons of the Desert: Early Aboriginal Painting from Papunya (Ithaca, New York) ISBN 9781934260074. From 2003 to 2007, he was J. W. Power Professor and Director of the Power Institute at the University of Sydney, succeeding Virginia Spate. Academics whose postgraduate work Benjamin has supervised include Ian McLean, Mary Roberts, Chris McAuliffe, Charles Green, Caroline Jordan, Luke Gartlan, Natalie Adamson, and Stephen Gilchrist. Benjamin held the Australian Research Council’s DORA professorial fellowship from 2013 to 2016, resulting in his book Kandinsky and Klee in Tunisia, University of California Press, 2015. His exhibition Biskra, sortilèges d'une oasis [Biskra, visions of an Oasis] was held at the Institut du Monde Arabe, Paris, in 2016 before travelling to the Musée Matisse in Nice in 2017. Benjamin was elected Fellow of the Australian Academy of the Humanities in 2006. (en) Roger Harold Benjamin, né le 18 juin 1957, est professeur d'histoire de l'art à l'université de Sydney. (fr) |
