We are seeking to appoint two Assistant Curators.

 

The Assistant Curators will work with the Artes Mundi team to plan and deliver the forthcoming biennial exhibition, AM11. Specifically, they will assist the Director in all aspects of the programme delivery, in particular exhibition coordination and preparation, installation planning, monitoring budgets and contribute to events and public programming initiatives.

 

One post will have specific responsibility for artists showing in venues Mostyn, Llandudno and Aberystwyth Arts Centre; the second for artists showing at Chapter, Cardiff and Glynn Vivian Art Gallery, Swansea, and both will liaise with existing teams at these partner organisations.

 

This is an exciting opportunity to welcome new talent into our dedicated curatorial team and support artists, curators, writers, and others working in the visual arts in Wales.

 

Reporting to Nigel Prince, Director, the Assistant Curators will play a key role in the successful delivery of AM11, nationwide across Wales, and the related Prizes.
