The
Smithsonian American Art Museum supports research fellowships on topics
in art and culture of the United States. Predoctoral and postdoctoral
fellowships are awarded in an annual competition administered by the
museum and the Smithsonian’s Office of Fellowships and Grants.
Other types of appointments, with and without stipends, are available
to scholars. Research resources at the museum include an unparalleled
collection of art of the United States—more than 37,500 objects—from
the eighteenth century through the present day; an extensive study
collection relating to
the work of assemblagist Joseph Cornell (1903–1972); a library,
shared with the National Portrait Gallery, that contains 100,000 catalogued
volumes on American art, history, and biography; the Inventories of
American Painting and Sculpture listing information on more than 300,000
paintings and sculpture in public and private collections around the
world; and slide and photographic archives of more than 250,000 images
documenting American art and artists. The application deadline is
January 15 for awards beginning the following June 1. |
