________________________________
Curating Art specialises in the combination of art management, art
history, law and practical curatorial work in a composition that is
unusual in comparison to similar courses internationally. The academic
level of the education is in keeping with the university environment. We
encourage applications from persons within the academic field as well as
with curatorial and artistic experience.

Curating Art is a full time Master programme offered by the Department of
Art History in collaboration with the School of Business and the
Department of Law at Stockholm University. The course faculty consists of
representatives of these departments, as well as directors and curators at
leading art institutions in Stockholm. Guest lecturers include practising
artists, critics, curators and scholars practising in Sweden and
internationally.

The programme spans over a 2 year period and consists of theoretical
courses, including the writing of a thesis, a ten week internship in
Sweden or abroad, and work on an exhibition project. The teaching takes
many forms: lectures, seminars, and supervised work both individually and
in groups. Furthermore, each student has a personal tutor from the course
faculty.

We aim at an education that encourages creativity and innovation as well
as an awareness of traditions and a responsibility for museum collections.
In other words, we envision a field that bridges institutional and
alternative environments. We are attentive to the student's individual
focus and students are encouraged to develop their own profiles.

Upon completing the Curating Art Master Programme at Stockholm University,
the student receives a course diploma. Students who previously hold a
Bachelor's degree fulfil the criteria for a Master's degree.
