Organization: Getty
Apply By: 01 Oct 2024
About the Organization
Getty is a leading global arts organization committed to exhibiting, conserving, and understanding the world’s artistic and cultural heritage.
Based in Los Angeles, Getty pursues its work with partners around the world, while sharing art, knowledge, and resources with the public online, and in-person at the Getty Center and Getty Villa.
About the Scholarship
Opportunities for professionals to pursue research on topics that bring new knowledge and fresh perspectives to the field of conservation.
Through the Conservation Guest Scholars Program, Getty provides opportunities for established scholars or professionals who have attained distinction in the cultural heritage conservation field.
Recipients are in residence at the Conservation Institute for either a three-month or six-month residency, in which they pursue their own projects free from work-related obligations, make use of research collections at the Getty Center and Getty Villa, and participate with other Getty scholars, fellows, and interns in the intellectual life of Getty.
Conservation Guest Scholars may be in residence from three to six months:
- Three-month residency: September–December or January–March or April–June: $21,500
- Six-month residency: September–March or January–June: $43,000
The grant also includes a workstation at the Conservation Institute, research assistance, a travel stipend, an apartment in the Getty scholar housing complex, and an available healthcare option.
These terms apply as of August 2024 and are subject to future changes.
Eligibility
Applications are welcome from researchers and practitioners of all nationalities working in conservation, historic preservation, heritage science, heritage studies, and related fields. Applicants should have at least seven years of professional experience and should have an established record of publications and other contributions to the field. Individuals from groups underrepresented across the field of cultural heritage conservation are encouraged to apply.
Proposals for postdoctoral research or research that contributes to a PhD or other academic degree will not be considered. Recent PhDs in chemistry and other physical or material sciences should apply to the Postdoctoral Fellowship in Conservation Science.
The Conservation Institute will consider proposals that require use of its science laboratories; however, use is dependent upon availability of lab facilities and staff time and cannot be guaranteed. If selected, Scholars should be prepared to conduct research independent of Science department staff.
Previous Conservation Guest Scholar Grant recipients are eligible to reapply after a waiting period of six years.
Current Getty staff and members of their immediate family are not eligible for Conservation Guest Scholar Grants.
A related opportunity, the Getty Scholars Program at the Getty Research Institute, supports innovative research about art, conceived in the broadest terms, and its histories, by providing a locus for international scholars to forge collaborations across disciplines and professional practices, while also developing new audiences for their work.
Conservation Guest Scholars and Getty Scholars live in the same complex and participate in many shared activities and lectures while in residence. The two parallel programs provide ample opportunities for exchange and collaboration. Applications for the Scholars Program at the Getty Research Institute are made separately.
How to Apply
The deadline for submission of application materials is 5:00 pm Los Angeles time (GMT -7), October 1, 2024.
Applications are submitted through the Getty Foundation Grant Portal. When the application is open, users can create or update their account and password, log in, and begin a new application.
