The Curatorial Internship Programme is open for applications
As part of its mandate to provide training and development, the Spier Contemporary is launching a Curatorial Internship Programme.
The Spier Contemporary Curatorial Internship Programme is a free programme that will run part-time for a year.
The course will combine theoretical and practical training in Curatorial Studies.
The programme will be implemented by artist and curator Clive van den Berg and TRACE, an exhibition research, museum development and curation company.
The course is structured to give participants exposure to a wide range of people who work in the field.
The curatorial interns will be integrated into exhibit programmes and will witness and participate in answering different curatorial challenges in all phases of making an exhibition: concept, research, fund-raising, design, bidding, manufacture, installation, testing and opening.
Applicants should have a relevant undergraduate qualification and/or three to five years of relevant professional experience.
