Oxford welcomes Shirin Neshat and Malcolm Rogers as Visiting Professors

The Ruskin School is collaborating with the Humanities Division, Magdalen College and Balliol College on a series of Visiting Professorships, which are intended to bring leading practitioners and scholars to the University to address major themes in the arts, social sciences and humanities. Created by Lord Weidenfeld, the Humanitas Visiting Professorships at Oxford and Cambridge are managed and funded by the Institute for Strategic Dialogue with the support of a series of generous benefactors, including Ivorypress and Foster + Partners.
