This is a two-year full-time position that will begin at the start of the academic year 2019-2020. There is the possibility of renewal for a third year. The fellow will also have access both to a leading art research library and the Research and Academic Program, which is among the country’s most active and stimulating research institutions. The fellow also will have the opportunity to co-host a colloquium related to their research in their second year; for examples of recent events, please consult: https://www.clarkart.edu/rap/events
