The University of Gothenburg tackles society's challenges with diverse knowledge. 56 000 students and 6 600 employees make the university a large and inspiring place to work and study. Strong research and attractive study programmes attract scientists and students from around the world. With new knowledge and new perspectives, the University contributes to a better future.

In partnership with Academy of Music and Drama, HDK-Valand constitutes the biggest artistic faculty in Scandinavia, offering a peerless breadth of education and research. We are located centrally in Gothenburg and enjoy a close working relationship with local and regional operators, along with a broad international network comprising partners all over the globe. Our goal is to team up with Gothenburg University to create the largest and broadest artistic faculty in Scandinavia, where education and research merge in a transdisciplinary integration to help tackle the biggest challenges of our age. Together, we are to create a dynamic, outward-reaching and international environment and a robust launchpad for education, research and cooperation.

The Hasselblad Foundation supports, initiates and executes research into photography in all its forms of expression: as art, as documentarism, and as a science – current, historical and future-oriented. This encompasses research in relation to both photographers and artists, as well as regarding the work of theoretical researchers, which is communicated through exhibitions, publications and seminars, often in partnership with Gothenburg University. By awarding scholarships, creating platforms for exhibitions, supporting publications, lectures and symposia, and – in particular – through an interest in working relationships at both national and international level, the Hasselblad Foundation is striving to expand and improve the practical conditions for conducting and disseminating research into photography.

HDK-Valand and the Hasselblad Foundation have a long-term collaboration whose purpose is to support the exploration and development of the relations between photography and science. Within this framework, we are now seeking an artist/photographer whose interest lies in the field of (natural) science for a 2-year postdoc position, starting in January 2024.

The successful applicant will be able to define their own project within the framework of photography and (natural) science. The position is open to projects and ideas for collaboration between artistic and scientific applications which may, for instance, comprise visualisation of environmental and climate-related challenges, humanity's relation to natural resources, or a posthuman/non-human/AI or similar approach at the intersection between photography and (natural) sciences. The postdoc position can also be linked to current projects at HDK-Valand and the Hasselblad Foundation, as well as to the growing platform in Gothenburg, which comprises various actors within and outside the world of academia who are working with visualisation linked to science and sustainable societal development.

Applications for the postdoc position can be addressing innovative relations between art and science, for example visual representation and visualisation in the field of natural science, virtual remote research, research communication and narration with XR technologies, and the collection and processing of visual data in research. Applications will also be assessed from the perspective of critical approach and ethical consciousness.
