In addition to the range of their subject matter, the Fellows themselves represent a wide variety of organizations, from regional museums and university art galleries to major international institutions like the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Grantees are also at different stages in their careers, from assistant to senior curators. We all know that many demands are placed on museum professionals today, but allowing curators concentrated periods of time to pursue research will ultimately strengthen their work and that of their institutions. I think it's wonderful that the Getty is encouraging this. Full-time curators working in museums with art collections are eligible to apply for Curatorial Research Fellowships, which are awarded by the Getty Grant Program through an open competition.
Fellows pursue their research wherever necessary to complete their projects.
The next application deadline for Curatorial Research Fellowships is November 1, 2000. The Grant Program's Curatorial Research Fellowships are one of many types of support offered to institutions and individuals throughout the world. The Grant Program provides crucial support for projects in art history, museum practice, conservation, and other related fields. The Getty Trust also includes the J. Paul Getty Museum as well as programs for education, scholarship, and conservation. To conduct preliminary research for a historical survey of feminist art.
