My current teaching ranges across modern Chinese language acquisition, topics in East Asian history of art & media (including film), academic skills in thesis writing; current PhD supervision includes one project devoted to the history of Chinese art collecting in the Netherlands.

 Specifically:

BA1 – BA2: I organize and contribute to BA1/BA2 Chinese language teaching for BA1 and BA2 students in International Relations (IRIO);

BA2: I teach an introductory course Modern East Asian Art & Visual Culture (including factory arts, painting, woodblock print, lithography, film and the acvant-garde) for  BA2 and pre-Master’s students in Art History, Architecture and Landscape Studies;

BA3: I teach From Theory to Practice, a course devoted to skills & best practices for writing the BA dissertation for Art History, BA3 Architecture and Landscape Studies;

BA3: Now in development is a collaborative course (scheduled for 2022-2023, Semester II) devoted to art history outside Europe: Africa, East Asia, and Islam for BA3 students in Art History, Architecture and Landscape Studies;

MA: I lead MA Research Tutorials on dedicated subjects (in 2022-2023: painting in sixteenth-century China) for Art History, BA3 Architecture and Landscape Studies, and supervise MA dissertation projects;

BA Honours: In collaboration with the late Dr Ya-pei Kuo I have taught within the BA Honours Summer School Atelier with its focus on China. We initiated this international course - with external contrbutor-instructors - and its constituent projects (the students’ reports in various media) in 2019 when it included a one-week visit to Shanghai. Following the Corona virus pandemic, we adjusted it to local conditions. In 2022, we ran a course Chinese Gardens in Europe, devoted to private and public ideas of space in China, including visits to the Haren Hortus (Mingyuan), Cologne Museum für Ostasiatische Kunst and Bochum University’s Chinese garden (Qianyuan) and it Botany Department. Invited contributors were Prof Antoine Gournay and Dr Bianca Rinaldi (respectively: Paris IV-Sorbonne and Politecnico di Torino).

In previous appointments I have taught courses on topics of art history and archaeology in China. I have also taught seminars to practice palaeographic skills for reading and translating early Chinese texts, epigraphy and painting inscriptions; courses for acquiring reading/translation skills in both literary and vernacular Chinese; “hands on” courses devised on the basis of museum collections of Chinese art and archaeology. I have taught parts of these courses during residences at universities in China, Taiwan and Japan. (Syllabi available upon request.)
