Dr Alexander Marr is Reader in the History of Early Modern Art at the University of Cambridge and a Fellow of Trinity Hall.  He specializes in Early Modern art and architecture, particularly their intellectual and scientific aspects.  He has been awarded fellowships and grants from institutions such as The British Academy, the Huntington Library, the AHRC, and the Victoria and Albert Museum (where he was Robert H. Smith Scholar in Residence, 2011).  In 2008 he was awarded a Philip Leverhulme Prize for his “outstanding contribution” to the History of Art.  In 2014 he was awarded a European Research Council Consolidator Grant.

This collaboration between the University of Cambridge, the Humboldt University, and the Clark Art Institute is funded by the Cambridge-DAAD German Research Hub.

Under the auspices of these projects, his current research is chiefly on Dürer, Rubens, Simon Vouet, early modern epistemic images, and the culture of ingenuity.

He is writing two monographs: Rubens’s Spirit (under contract for Reaktion Books’ Renaissance Lives series). Ingenuity and the Invention of Artistic Freedom in Early Modern Europe.

With Raphaële Garrod, José Ramón Marcaida and Richard Oosterhoff, he is writing Logodaedelus: Word Histories of Ingenuity in Early Modernity.
