Charmaine Nelson is an Associate Professor of Art History, in the Department of Art History and Communication Studies at McGill University, Montreal. She received her PhD in Art History from the University of Manchester, UK in 2001. She is the first (and currently the only) black person to be employed as a professor of Art History at a Canadian university. Her research and teaching interests include postcolonial and black feminist scholarship, critical (race) theory, Trans Atlantic Slavery Studies and Black Diaspora Studies. Her work examines Canadian, American, European and Caribbean art and visual culture. She has made ground-breaking contributions to the fields of the Visual Culture of Slavery, Race and Representation and Black Canadian Studies.
Nelson has published five books including the co-edited volume (with Camille Nelson) Racism Eh?: A Critical Inter-Disciplinary Anthology of Race and Racism in Canada (2004), the edited volumes Ebony Roots, Northern Soil: Perspectives on Blackness in Canada (2010) and Legacies Denied: Unearthing the Visual Culture of Canadian Slavery (2013) and two single-authored books, The Color of Stone: Sculpting the Black Female Subject in Nineteenth-Century America (2007) and Representing the Black Female Subject in Western Art (New York: Routledge, 2010).
Nelson has authored several book chapters, journal articles and other publications on various subjects. She has held several prestigious fellowships and appointments including a Caird Senior Research Fellowship, National Maritime Museum, Greenwich, UK (2007), a Fulbright Visiting Research Chair, University of California – Santa Barbara (2010) and a Visiting Professorship at the University of Wisconsin – Milwaukee, Department of Africology (2011). She was awarded a Woman of Distinction Award from the Montreal’s Women’s YWCA in 2012 (Arts and Culture Category) and was an honoree at McGill University’s Celebration of Research Excellence, Bravo 2013.
Her most recent Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada funded research project explores nineteenth-century landscapes of Montreal and Jamaica as products of colonial discourse and imperial geography. She has already published a lengthy book chapter with some of her research findings: “Sugar Cane, Slaves and Ships: Colonialism, Geography and Power in Nineteenth-Century Landscapes of Montreal and Jamaica” ed. Ana Lucia Araujo Living History: Encountering the Memory of the Heirs of Slavery (New Castle upon Tyne, UK: Cambridge Scholars Publishers, 2009). Her sixth book on this topic is forthcoming with Ashgate Press, UK in 2014. Her seventh book, with McGill-Queen’s Press, will combine a focus on the representation of black people in Canadian art with an examination of art by black Canadian artists.
Dr. Nelson will be on our show live tonight at 8 p.m. Eastern/5 p.m. Pacific. She will be talking about her two most recent articles at The Huffington Post: Challenging “Blackface” Is Not Quebec-Bashing and Why Did a Cheerios Commercial Spark a Racist Meltdown?
