Call for interns
Deadline 1st December 2014
Fieldwork is an internship programme that offers students, recent graduates, artists, and researchers within the field of the visual arts an exciting opportunity to become involved with the events and exhibition programme of the gallery.
Central to the internship programme is to take on an active role in the realisation of the events programme, which interrogates the themes and dialogue raised within the exhibitions at Cell Project Space. The events will either take place inside the gallery during or in between exhibitions or as adjunct off site events. Additionally the internship offers an excellent opportunity to gain work experience in all aspects of contemporary art production, ranging from the installation of exhibitions to front of house.
During exhibitions, the internship is scheduled for 3 hours per week over a period of 3 months enabling interns to fit the programme around their own timetable. During these weekly three hours, successful applicants are expected to commit to working front of house at the gallery representing the public image of the organisation and supporting the gallery manager in realising the events programme.
During installation periods and event preparations interns would be requires to increase their hours, negotiated in advance by the team to fit a planned schedule. At this point there would be an opportunity to work directly with artists and curators, be part of a team to realise an exhibition . For applicants who are keen to learn technical skills there would be opportunities to work alongside Cell’s professional technicians. During this intense period interns would expect to attend at least four 8 hour days within a two week period
To make an application send a covering letter and a recent curriculum vitae including your date of birth, past education and work experience if any to Femke Oortwijn at [email protected]. Interviews will take place in the week after the deadline has closed.
