Jan Bäcklund is a faculty member at Linnaeus University in the Faculty of Arts and Humanities, specifically within the Department of Music and Image with a focus on Art History. He serves as the program director for the Culture Leadership Program since 2020. His extensive academic career is marked by numerous publications spanning art theory, art history, and interdisciplinary fields connecting craftsmanship, art and science. His research interests encompass Art Theory , Art History , Alchemy History , Black Art , and Arts of Fire , exploring the spaces between craftsmanship, art and science. He has significant expertise in encyclopedics, information management, bibliography and book history. His ongoing research concerns readymade and fake concepts, indexicality and representation theories, as well as art historiography. Bäcklund has a particular scholarly interest in 15th century Dutch art, Soviet conceptual art, Marcel Duchamp, Chinese ink painting, and 'bureaugraphy'—a term he coined himself. Analysis of Bäcklund's recent publications reveals a strong theoretical focus on contemporary art, particularly examining authenticity and the readymade concept in art. His work consistently bridges historical perspectives with current theoretical challenges, with increasing attention to non-anthropocentric approaches to art. His publications show a sophisticated engagement with representation theory and the philosophical underpinnings of artistic practice, often drawing connections between seemingly disparate fields like alchemy and contemporary art.
