ALLEN WHITEHILL CLOWES CURATORIAL FELLOWSHIP

The Indianapolis Museum of Art is pleased to announce a nine-month
curatorial fellowship. The fellowship supports scholarly research
related to the Clowes Collection at the IMA and provides curatorial
training in the field of European painting and sculpture. The Clowes
Fellow is fully integrated into the curatorial division of the Museum
and has duties comparable to those of an assistant curator, ranging
from collection research and management to exhibition development and
the preparation of interpretive materials and programs.

To be eligible for the fellowship, the applicant must be enrolled in a
graduate course of study leading to an advanced degree in the history
of art or a related discipline, or be a recent degree recipient
(within the last two years). Applicants must demonstrate scholarly
excellence and promise, as well as a strong interest in the museum
profession. U.S. citizenship is not required.

The Clowes Fellow will receive a stipend of $18,000 and an educational
travel allowance of $2,000. Housing is provided in a scholar’s
residence on the grounds of the museum. The nine-month fellowship
period will begin September 5, 2011. The appointment is renewable.

Applications should include a cover letter explaining your interest in
the fellowship, a curriculum vitae, a concise statement describing
your area of research and its relationship to the Clowes Collection
and three letters of recommendation (academic and professional).
Applications must be received by March 31, 2011.
