<b>Research Fellowship in Commissioning Contemporary Art</b><br>

Closing date for applications: 8 January 2007<br>
<br>
Research Fellowship <br>
c. £30,000<br>
<br>
Situations at the University of the West of England, Bristol is seeking a full-time Research Fellow to join its expanding staff team. Situations is a research and commissioning programme dedicated to broadening notions of place and context in contemporary art. In association with Dartington College of Arts and ProjectBase in South-West England, Situations has been awarded a Great Western Research Fellowship grant to create a research alliance of international significance in visual arts commissioning. <br>
<br>
The project acknowledges that whilst the commissioning of place-based contemporary art works is dominating the visual arts sector nationally and internationally, there has never been a comparative study of commissioning methods across different visual arts sectors from large-scale international exhibitions to urban regeneration programmes, from gallery off-site projects to commissioning agency models. <br>
<br>
The Fellow will undertake an ambitious comparative study of commissioning methods across five international visual arts sectors and will make a substantial contribution to published research, working collaboratively with the Situations team and our two South-West partners to co-ordinate a programme of internationally-focused public events. <br>
Based at the Bush House office in the centre of Bristol, this position will be instrumental in delivering this ground-breaking research project entitled ‘Locating the Producers’. The timescale of the project is spring 2007 to winter 2009. There is potential for the Research Fellowship to be renewed beyond 2009. <br>
<br>
We are seeking a dynamic and creative individual with experience of commissioning and/or published research or criticism in commissioning and curating contemporary art. Training in qualitative research methods will be given, though experience of academic research at post-doctoral level is desirable. A thorough knowledge of contemporary curatorial discourse and an interest in issues of site and context specificity are essential. <br>
Dependent on skills and experience, the expected starting salary will be c£30k on the Research Fellow grade.<br>

Please quote reference R/10977/AM. Closing date for applications: 8 January 2007. Interviews will be held on Wednesday 31 January 2007 at Bush House, 72 Prince Street, Bristol, BS1 4HN, UK. <br>
