Fellowship

Peacock Visual Arts Associates 2019 Open Call: Curatorial Fellowship

Updated: 04 April 2019

Peacock Associates 2019 invites applications from curators and artist-curators living and working in Aberdeen and the North-East region* to engage in this one-year programme.
Through the ‘Deep Mapping’ methodology, the fellowship generates a platform for collective learning. Deep Mapping proposes a perspective from below. It is a spatial practice that recovers what is suppressed and excluded from the traditional bird’s-eye view cartography. It is a process of reading and reshaping the landscape that embraces political, social, economic and environmental concerns, challenging accepted knowledge and imposed belief systems. Through Deep Mapping the group will explore the radical culture of the North East of Scotland.
Five successful applicants will be selected for the fellowship and participate in the following activities:

  • four intensive sessions with guest curators with regional and international practices;
  • a remote reading group which develops and shapes curatorial discourse over the period of programme;
  • mentoring support;
  • and a physical and collective embodiment of the research undertaken, culminating in an exhibition at The W OR M.

Deadline 22 April 2019
