Curatorial Fellowship

The NARS Curatorial Fellow will work closely with the International Residency Artists and conduct studio visits during their six-month fellowship period. The Curatorial Fellow will develop an exhibition with each of the two cohorts of International Residency Artists. Each International Residency season runs for three months, and the exhibition developed by the curatorial fellow will be on view during the final month of each season.

About: NARS Curatorial Fellowship

The Curatorial Fellow will work closely with the artists-in-residence and NARS Staff on the International Residency Program and to develop an exhibition.

During the six-month fellowship period, curators will develop an exhibition with each of the two cohorts of International Residency Artists. Each International Residency season runs for three months, and the exhibition developed by the curatorial fellow will be on view during the final month of each season.

The Curatorial Fellow will conduct studio visits with each artist-in-residence and develop a cohesive curatorial plan for the group exhibition, with works from each of the current artists-in-residence. Curatorial Fellows are expected to be present in the studio space & NARS office for at least one day a week. Fellows will also write a press release for each exhibition.

This is a unique opportunity for emerging curators to work with artists from a multitude of backgrounds and disciplines. The Fellowship is designed to both complement and enhance the well-established International Residency Program, and further foster new perspectives and diversity of experiences for both the Curator and Residency Artists.
