Grant Overview
Target Outcomes for Saskatchewan Applicants
The Fellowship for Early Career Scholars from Around the World to Undertake Sustained Research and/or Writing for Projects, funded by the Banking Institution, prioritizes outcomes that will substantially advance the understanding of art and its history. For applicants based in Saskatchewan, Canada, the program is particularly interested in research that sheds light on the province's rich cultural heritage and its contributions to the global art historical narrative.
Advancing Art Historical Research in Saskatchewan
Saskatchewan is home to a thriving arts community, with a unique blend of Indigenous, European, and contemporary influences. The Saskatchewan Arts Board, a key provincial agency, plays a vital role in supporting local artists and arts initiatives. Research projects that explore the intersection of art and culture in Saskatchewan, such as the impact of Indigenous art on Canadian modernism or the role of the Saskatchewan art scene in shaping national identity, are likely to be considered high-priority.
The province's distinct geographic features, including its vast prairies and rugged north, have also inspired a distinctive artistic aesthetic. Projects that investigate the relationship between Saskatchewan's natural environment and its artistic production, such as the influence of the Group of Seven on prairie landscape painting, will be of particular interest.
Contributing to Global Art Historical Discourse
While the Fellowship is open to applicants from around the world, those based in Saskatchewan are well-positioned to contribute to global art historical discourse. The province's unique cultural context and its connections to international art networks make it an ideal location for research that explores the global dimensions of art history. Projects that examine the exchange of artistic ideas between Saskatchewan and other regions, such as the influence of European modernism on Canadian art or the impact of Indigenous art on global contemporary practices, will be highly valued.
In addition to advancing art historical research, the Fellowship also aims to support the development of early career scholars. For applicants based in Saskatchewan, this means providing opportunities for professional growth and networking within the province's vibrant arts community. The program's focus on sustained research and writing will enable fellows to produce high-quality scholarship that makes a meaningful contribution to the field.
Evaluating Success in Saskatchewan
The success of the Fellowship program in Saskatchewan will be evaluated based on the quality and impact of the research produced by fellows. The Banking Institution will assess the program's effectiveness in supporting early career scholars and advancing art historical research in the province. Key metrics will include the number of fellows who go on to secure tenure-track positions or leading roles in arts institutions, as well as the publication and exhibition outcomes resulting from their research.
To ensure that the program is meeting its goals, the Banking Institution will also engage in ongoing evaluation and feedback with fellows and other stakeholders. This will involve regular check-ins with fellows, as well as more formal assessments of program outcomes. By continually evaluating and refining the program, the Banking Institution aims to create a Fellowship that is responsive to the needs of early career scholars in Saskatchewan and beyond.
Conclusion
The Fellowship for Early Career Scholars from Around the World to Undertake Sustained Research and/or Writing for Projects offers a unique opportunity for scholars based in Saskatchewan to advance their research and contribute to the global art historical discourse. With its focus on sustained research and writing, the program is well-suited to support the development of high-quality scholarship that explores the province's rich cultural heritage and its contributions to the global art historical narrative.
