Internship at Dublin City Gallery The Hugh Lane

Internship
The Hugh Lane Gallery
Dublin

The Hugh Lane Gallery, is pleased to offer a one-year paid Painting
Conservation Internship beginning March 2007.

The internship will focus primarily on a conservation audit of the
gallery's 900 paintings, which date from the nineteenth century to
the present day, generating information for the gallery's
collections management database. The intern will also have the
opportunity to participate in other conservation activities, likely
to include treatments, preventive conservation and installation
relating to the gallery's busy loans and exhibition schedules.

The successful candidate will be encouraged to carry out a short
research project on an aspect of the collection, the subject of
which will be determined once the internship has begun.

The intern will report to the Head of Conservation, but should be
self-motivated and demonstrate the ability to work independently.
Applicants should be recent graduates from a recognised training
programme with a reasonable level of computer literacy.

The successful applicant will receive a stipend of Euro25,000 per
year, subject to normal PRSI and PAYE deductions.
