TheGiovanni Testori Association has launched a call for six scholarships for archivists, part of the Upskilling of Art Archives and Operators 4.0 - UAAO project . This project aims to train archivists specialized in digitizing and cataloging art archives, with the intention of supporting digital transition and capacity building in art archives.
The fellowships last for 20 months, from October 1, 2024 to May 31, 2026, and provide a total gross compensation of 22,916 euros, divided into monthly installments of 1,145.80 euros. The application deadline is 11:30 p.m. on September 8, 2024, and applications should be sent exclusively via PEC to associazionetestori@pec.it.
During the training, fellows will participate in a program that combines theory and practice. They will be involved in shadowing and field training, developing pilot projects and participating in peer-to-peer learning experiences in artist or art critic archives operating from the 19th century to the present, or in photographic archives. These experiences will take place at operating sites selected from the archives of: Associazione Giovanni Testori ETS, Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore di Milano - CRA.it (Centro di Ricerca sull’Arte astratta in Italia), Archives belonging to the networks AitArt (Associazione italiana Archivi d’Artista) and Museo MA*GA - Archivi del Contemporaneo, in Lombardy.
The project, conceived by the Giovanni Testori Association in collaboration with the Catholic University of Milan and BAM! Cultural Strategies, is the winner of a public notice of the PNRR TOCC - A 1, funded by the European Union - NextGenerationEU and managed by the Ministry of Culture.
