Tate Modern, London or Tate St Ives
Research Fellowships in Tate St Ives Programme and Tate Modern Curatorial. Tate, in collaboration with Delfina Foundation, invites applications for the Brooks International Fellowship Programme 2025. Now in its eleventh year, the programme will enable visual arts professionals to work with Tate colleagues for six months in 2025, complemented by activities at Delfina Foundation.
During this period, each Fellow will be part of a Tate team, actively participating in gallery projects and discussions related to their research theme. Fellows will have special access to Tate’s programme, collection, staff and wider networks.
The Fellows will reside at Delfina Foundation in London, where they will contribute to its own programme by presenting on their research or practice to a range of audiences and contributing to Delfina Foundation’s public programme.
Fully funded Brooks International Fellowships are made possible by the generous support of the Rory and Elizabeth Brooks Foundation.
In 2025, two Brooks International Fellows will be hosted. One will be with Tate St Ives Programme Team and one with Tate Modern Curatorial Division.
Brooks International Fellowship 2025 in Tate St Ives Programme
Fellowship dates: June 23–December 7, 2025. Tate welcomes applications for a Fellow to work with Tate St Ives, located in an artistically important coastal town in the far southwest of England, at a significant moment of change. The Fellow will contribute to the development of its artist residency programme, known as the Artists Programme.
We are seeking a researcher who will explore different residency models that embed socially engaged practice and community building at their heart, whilst also actively engaging with climate and social justice, developing international partnerships and networks, and connecting with a diversity of cultures and communities (including indigenous communities). They will work collaboratively and openly to inform and inspire the development of an environmentally and financially sustainable framework for the Artists Programme.
Brooks International Fellowship 2024 in Tate Modern Curatorial
Fellowship dates: June 23–December 7, 2025. Tate welcomes applications for a Fellow to focus on developments in ink art across East and Southeast Asia from the modern period (20th century), as Asian artists encountered Western styles and ideas and began to innovate, while still holding on to the key principles of ink practice. This research Fellowship will respond to Tate’s commitment to expand its ink collection and will contribute to forthcoming exhibitions and displays.
The Fellow will work with Tate colleagues to locate the practices of ink artists at the turn of modernity who sought to rethink, reclaim, and revive traditional techniques and philosophies. Together, we will attempt to grasp a more comprehensive story of ink’s development, beyond the prescribed temporalities and frameworks of Euro-American modernism.
Applications close on Thursday January 30, 2025, 5pm GMT. For more information and to apply, please visit Brooks International Fellowships on the Tate Vacancies website, read the full open call information and complete an application form.
