Three members of The Bodies, Emotions and Material Culture Collective—Prof Sasha Handley, Dr Edward Wouk, and Dr Stefan Hanß—are Partner Investigators of the new Australian Research Council-funded project Albrecht Dürer’s Material World: In Melbourne, Manchester and Nuremberg (2021–24, DP210101623, $311,681). 

This project brings together an international team of scholars from Australia, the UK, and Germany to provide a new, interdisciplinary account of the relationship between the material, sensory world of early modern Europe and its print culture. 

The project will include exhibitions, publications, various workshops, and visits to Melbourne by leading experts on Dürer and early modern Germany. 

The exhibition Albrecht Dürer’s Material World will be on display at The Whitworth, The University of Manchester, July 2023–July 2024. 

Congratulations!
