UCL Environment Institute
The UCL Environment Institute in conjunction with TippingPoint®, UCL Slade School of Art and the UCL History Department, is seeking to appoint an Artist-in-Residence and a Writer-in-Residence for the 2010-11 academic year.
With these two posts, the UCL Environment Institute is hoping to enhance further its aim of connecting the arts community and environmental professionals in order to explore and promote the relationship between the arts, science, technology, business and the environment, as a means of enhancing understanding and fostering collective action.
Both the artist and writer will be required to conduct a programme of work for academic staff and researchers linking art/creative writing with environmental issues centered on climate change. The specific content and structure of this programme will be from your proposal and will form the basis of selection at the interview stage. We anticipate that it might include a combination of various types of activities and styles of art.
The award for each is for 2 days per week for 9 months (October - June) and it is £8,000 plus up to £1,000 for expenses. The UCL Environment Institute will provide office space as required during this period.
The closing date for applications is 5pm, 2nd July 2010; late applications will not be accepted. Interviews will be held on 12th July 2010. Only shortlisted applicants will be notified. Please send 5 copies of the application to Nina Crane, UCLEI, Pearson Building, Gower Street, London, WC1E 6BT or by email: n.crane@ucl.ac.uk. The application should include the following: an outline of the proposed programme of work, a brief CV and, if appropriate, examples of recent work. Please note any work sent can only be returned if an SAE is included and is specifically requested.
