Positions at Andrea Pitsch Conservation

Two Paper Conservation Positions Available Immediately.

Andrea Pitsch Conservation in New York City is accepting
applications for two positions: junior paper conservator, and
assistant paper conservator.

Since 1985, APC has provided museum quality paper conservation and
consultation services to New York City and area museums, galleries,
artists' estates, corporate and private collections. The studio
concentrates on conservation of fine prints and original works on
paper, specializing in 18th Century to Contemporary art. We also
provide on-site surveys, examination reports of artworks and storage
facilities, visits to galleries and auction houses for consultation
purposes, as well as disaster planning and assistance.

The junior conservator position is open to applicants with an
advanced degree in art conservation or certificate in conservation,
or equivalent, with little or no additional work experience. The
successful candidate will work closely with the chief conservator,
concentrating on examination, documentation, and hands-on treatment
with an eye to developing skills and expertise and the confidence
that comes with experience.

The assistant conservator position requires an advanced degree in
art conservation or certificate in conservation, or equivalent, with
additional post graduate work experience. Responsibilities may vary
with the successful candidate's experience, but will include
examination, treatment proposals, writing reports and surveys, and
the independent treatment of artworks under supervision of the chief
conservator.

Salaries are competitive and commensurate with experience.  Length
of the positions is flexible. We require a three-month minimum
commitment, but candidates seeking a longer term or permanent
position will be given priority. Applications are welcomed from the
international conservation community.

These positions offer excellent learning and growth opportunities in
a busy, friendly atmosphere. We offer the newcomer to New York
assistance in making the transition easier.
