curatorial fellowship

Etant donnésoffers grants to American curators wishing to conduct research on the French visual art scene. These grants are intended to expand the opportunities of American curators, to encourage in-depth explorations of French cultural resources, and to provide a forum for the exchange of ideas and knowledge among artists, professionals, researchers, and institutions.

Villa Albertine partners for the second time with ICI (Independent Curators International) to offer up to three grants of $3,000 each to United States based curators from within ICI’s network and beyond. The grants are intended to contribute to covering the costs of transportation, lodging, per diems, insurance, and any costs related to the research trip.

Candidates are encouraged to connect with art professionals and other researchers as well as with institutions, universities, art schools, or private and public archives in preparation for future exhibitions or collaborations.

The Villa Albertine team, in connection with professionals in France, will also provide its help to the selected curators to enlarge their contacts, orientate them towards venues, artists and directors of institutions that could be of some interest for their research.
