[CODE4LIB] Job: Fellowship in Time-Based Media Conservation at Smithsonian American Art Museum

2018-06-05 Thread Code4Lib Jobs
The Conservation Department at the Smithsonian American Art Museum (SAAM) is 
accepting applications for a Lunder Conservation Fellowship in time-based media 
conservation. The Lunder Conservation Fellowship provides the opportunity to 
further refine examination and treatment skills and to pursue collection-based 
research. The fellow will gain experience working in a collaborative museum 
environment, which has access to the resources at the Museum Conservation 
Institute and the larger Smithsonian research community.

The fellow will be encouraged to pursue avenues of research related to 
technical art history as well as aspects of conservation theory and ethics 
related to conservation treatments. A primary mission of the Lunder 
Conservation Center is to serve the professional and public communities through 
outreach, thus we especially encourage those interested in the communication of 
conservation practices and research to apply. The Lunder Conservation Fellow 
will have the opportunity to plan a professional outreach activity and to 
participate in some of the routine activities of the Lunder Conservation Center 
as part of their professional development.

The fellow’s own interests will help dictate the selection of time-based media 
artworks to be treated and a research direction. Candidates are encouraged to 
reach out to Lunder Conservation Center staff in advance of submitting an 
application to discuss potential research directions and potential treatments.

The fellowship is open to U.S. and international citizens who have a Master’s 
degree in conservation from a recognized conservation training program, or a 
Master’s degree in a related field, such as audiovisual archiving and 
preservation, information science, computer science, or other field that can be 
sufficiently demonstrated to prepare one for the care of media art. Candidates 
must have proficient English language skills (written and spoken).

The Lunder Conservation Fellowship includes a stipend of $32,700 and a research 
allowance of $3,300. The fellowship is to begin in October 2018 and run for a 
term of 12 months. Applications will be evaluated on the quality of the 
proposed research project; its compatibility with Smithsonian collections, 
facilities, staff, and programs; and the applicant's academic standing, 
scholarly qualifications, and experience. Fellowships are open to all persons 
regardless of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, 
genetic information, parental status, marital status, or sexual orientation.

To apply, please submit a statement of interest, a C.V., and two letters of 
recommendation to Amber Kerr by emailing dwrclun...@si.edu with “2018 Lunder

application materials is June 30, 2018. Interviews will be conducted by phone
