Application Deadline: April 5, 2019.

Residency Duration:
Term of maximum 4 weeks (total of 40 hours). Dates are not predetermined but are nominated by the applicant between May-July.

Location: Concordia University, Montreal, QC.

Eligibility: Art History (major or minor) undergraduate or graduate students at Concordia University.

Application Components:
1. Curriculum Vitae
2. Project Proposal (300-400 words) responding to the following question:
What underrepresented area of research in ethnic and cultural art history do you want to investigate and why?
3. Proposed Schedule


Program Description:
The EAHR Research Residency Diversifying Academia at Concordia: EAHR Research Residency, asks the resident to respond to the underrepresentation of areas of ethnic minority art history research in the sources available in the Concordia University Libraries. This residency is a self-directed research program that provides residents the opportunity to work independently in the library with the guidance of John Latour (Teaching & Research Librarian - Fine Arts). As part of EAHR’s mandate, the residency promotes critical engagement with issues of ethnic and cultural representation within the visual arts in Canada. We acknowledge the role academia plays in the representation of ethnic and cultural minority art histories; therefore we, encourage our art historians-in-residence to make a scholarly commitment to the investigation of underrepresented areas in the history of art and visual culture through a critical engagement with the available sources at the Concordia Libraries.

Each resident will be responsible for completing an extensive bibliography on a proposed underrepresented or marginalized area of ethnic and/or cultural art history research and use a $500 book fund to recommend new sources on the proposed topic to be integrated into the Concordia Libraries. Additionally, the research-resident will be responsible for writing an article (length can vary) justifying their research findings and developing a way to visualize and communicate the research and acquisition of new library sources in the Webster library as a way of informing the student body of this intervention.

We welcome art history students (major or minor) from diverse backgrounds who have an interest in making visible a marginalized cultural history of art and visual culture in Montreal.

Responsibilities:
  • Submit an application proposing an area of underrepresented area of ethnic research in art history in the Concordia University Libraries;
  • Complete an extensive bibliography on the selected and approved topic;
  • Propose a number of sources to be added to the Concordia Libraries based on their research, within the proposed book fund budget;
  • Write an article (length can vary) justifying their research findings and develop a way to visualize and communicate the research and acquisition of new library sources in the Webster library as way of informing the student body of this intervention.
  • Meet with John Latour once a week

The proposed research residency would offer:
  • An honorarium of $500;
  • The opportunity to recommend book purchses to the Concordia Library (valued at $500);
  • Access to resources and guidance in their research from John Latour, Concordia Art History Librarian;
  • Publication of their annotated bibliography and essay on the Concordia Art History Subject Guide https://www.concordia.ca/library/guides/art-history.html#4

The goals of the research residency, with respect to EAHR’s mandate, would be:
  • To exercise how the study of art history can contribute to the diversification of course curriculums and make real, tangible changes in the Concordia Libraries;
  • To provide funded opportunities for undergraduate and graduate art history researchers that promotes the study of ethnic and cultural art histories;
  • To give a voice to the research through creative projects that incite participation and attention from students and faculty at Concordia University;
  •  And to restructure power relations with regards to access to knowledge and ethnic minority representation in academia.
