Getty Research Institute, 2015–2016: Art and Materiality
Applications due by 3 November 2014

The Getty Research Institute invites proposals for the 2015–2016 academic year residential grants and fellowships. The Getty Research Institute theme, “Art and Materiality,” aims to explore how the art object and its materiality have enhanced the study of art history. Scholars, working with conservators and scientists, are gaining insight into the process of art making from raw material to finished object, as well as the strategic deployment of materials both for their aesthetic qualities and for their power to signify. The Getty Research Institute seeks proposals from scholars and fellows on these and other issues related to the materiality of art.

Detailed application guidelines are available online.
