Smithsonian American Art Museum supports research fellowships on
topics in art and visual 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. 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
40,000 objects—from the eighteenth century through the present day;
an extensive study collection relating to the work of Joseph Cornell
(1903–1972); a library, shared with the National Portrait Gallery,
that contains 180,000 catalogued volumes on American art, history,
and biography; the Inventories of American Painting and Sculpture
listing information on more than 380,000 paintings and sculpture in
public and private collections around the world; and slide and
photographic archives of a quarter million images documenting
American art and artists. The application deadline is January 15 for
awards beginning the following June 1. |
