Prijzen:
Professor Baert has been awarded several times during her career. In 2006, she was the Laureate of the Royal Flemish Academy in Belgium for an outstanding scientific career before the age of 40. Since 2014, Baert has been made a member ad vitam at the Royal Flemish Academy of Belgium, and in 2016 she has also been granted a lifelong membership at the prestigious Academia Europaea. In that same year, Barbara Baert was awarded the prestigious Francqui Prize for her bold approach to, and her pioneering work in medieval visual culture.
As the Francqui jury report proclaims: “Her truly innovative approach to the iconology of Mediaeval Art, which has placed into the foreground the senses, materiality, and various aspects of the female and male body, and iconographic themes that have been neglected in the past, has deeply transformed the way European religious and secular art of the Middle Ages is viewed.”
In November 2017, she was knighted in recognition of her public service as Commandeur in the Belgian Order of Leopold.
Moreover, Barbara Baert has been a fellow Professor at The Internationales Kolleg für Kulturforschung und Medienphilosophie (IKKM) at the Weimar Bauhaus Universität (2015), at the Istituto di Studi Avanzati at the Università di Bologna (2018), and the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton (2019).
