Art Fund Curators Programme at Frieze Masters
Application deadline: Friday 11 July, 5pm
Together with Frieze and the National Gallery Subject Specialist Network: European Paintings pre-1900, Art Fund is delighted to offer 10 fully funded places for UK regional curators, alongside 5 international counterparts, to attend a two-day programme exploring the subject of transhistorical exhibition making.
Working in partnership with the SSN for European Paintings pre-1900 and The National Gallery, through the Frieze Masters programme we’re aiming to bring together a cohort of emerging career curators from diverse and underrepresented backgrounds to explore the subject of transhistorical exhibition making (across historical time periods, both historic and contemporary).
The programme will be led by Dr Jennifer Sliwka, Keeper of Western Art at the Ashmolean Museum and Professorial Fellow of Balliol College, University of Oxford and will include:
online pre-programme seminar and introduction to the Art market session
introduction and access to Radical Harmony Helene Kröller-Müller's Neo-Impressionists exhibition at the National Gallery
keynote speaker in-conversation (Dr. Aimee Ng, John Updike Curator, The Frick Collection)
curators’ workshop
tours of Frieze Masters
Invitation to alumni event
invitation to join the "Unexpected View" event at The National Gallery
feedback meeting with the curators
access to Frieze London and Frieze Masters
Art Fund Curators Programme at Frieze Masters takes place at Regents Park, London, on Thursday 16 and Friday 17 October.
