Tate Britain
By The Art Newspaper. [UNDEFINED]
Tateb The aim of Tate Britain is to increase public awareness, understanding and enjoyment of British art from the 16th century to the present day, and of international modern and contemporary art. Tate supports this ambition by facilitating extraordinary experiences between people and art.
In the last 12 months Tate Britain has started to embed a strategy for 2013 and beyond. This strategy sets out our ambition to raise the profile of the collection alongside the exhibition programme, and to improve the research culture within period specialisms.
To support both aim and strategy, Tate Britain is recruiting for two Curators in British Art 1750 1830 and British Art 1850 1915. The Curators are responsible for the care and presentation of the collection and contributes to the development of the Collection by means of research, managing displays and exhibitions, and maintaining and developing a scholarly profile in the field.
Youll have a PhD and a record of publication on relevant topics, or an equivalent body of published work at post-doctoral level.
With significant relevant work experience in an art gallery, museum, or with a collection, youll be a specialist in one or more areas of British art from 1850 - 1915.
Besides having a track record of devising and delivering exhibitions with imagination and distinction, youll also possess the ability to manage and develop a team and the ability to coach and work with others to achieve results.
This is a position that requires commitment to and awareness of issues of equality and cultural diversity as they affect the work of a major museum.
