Research Fellowships in Collection Management, Visitor Communications and Tate Modern Curatorial.
Tate, in collaboration with Delfina Foundation, invites applications for the Brooks International Fellowship Programme 2024. Now in its tenth year, the programme will enable visual arts professionals to work with Tate colleagues in London for six months in 2024, complemented by activities at Delfina Foundation.
During this period, each Fellow will be part of a Tate team, actively participating in gallery projects and discussions related to their research theme. Fellows will have special access to Tate’s programme, collection, staff and wider networks.
The Fellows will reside at Delfina Foundation, where they will contribute to its own programme by presenting on their research or practice to a range of audiences and contributing to Delfina Foundation’s public programme.
Fully funded Brooks International Fellowships are made possible by the generous support of the Rory and Elizabeth Brooks Foundation.
In 2024, three Brooks International Fellows will be hosted. One will be in Tate Collection Management, one in Tate Visitor Communications and one in Tate Modern Curatorial.
Brooks International Fellowship 2024 in Collection Management
Fellowship dates: April 2–September 15, 2024
Tate encourages applications from candidates working globally in the field of collection management to undertake a programme of research into the need to embed environmental sustainability in relation to collection management practice. Using Tate’s collection as the focus, the research will consider how institutions transport, acquire, lend, borrow, manage and share their collections across institutions and countries.
Brooks International Fellowship 2024 in Visitor Communications
Fellowship dates: April 2–September 15, 2024
Tate encourages applications from candidates working globally with existing research in visitor communications, or a related subject. The Fellow will conduct research into one of three options: the use of digital tools in visitor communications; onsite provision for international audiences; or handling visitor communications in the contested public realm. Candidates should bring their perspectives into dialogue with Tate and Delfina Foundation and will jointly devise and deliver the research programme with the Visitor Communications team.
Brooks International Fellowship 2024 in Tate Modern Curatorial
Fellowship dates: July 8–December 22, 2024
Tate encourages applications from candidates to explore modernist histories of abstraction across West Asia and North Africa. The Fellowship presents an opportunity to work closely with Tate curatorial colleagues to support new and ongoing research while contributing the broader landscape of museum and curatorial practices. The researcher would be involved in mapping connections between West and South Asia, Europe, and the Americas.
Applications close on Thursday October 12, 2023, 5pm GMT.
