Become an Art Project Agent

We are looking for volunteers with a background in Art History, Fine Art, Curatorial Studies, Design, Drama, Education, Events Management, Film, Journalism or Landscape Architecture, to assist behind the scenes and in the realisation of the rescheduled 6th SCAPE Christchurch Biennial of Art in Public Space.

Running from 4 March to 17 April 2011 the 6th SCAPE programme will include large-scale site-specific public artworks and interventions by New Zealand and international artists – geographically centered along a public art walkway within the inner city.

APAs will work directly with the SCAPE team and artists, gaining an insight into large-scale art events and contemporary art practice. APAs will gain a firsthand knowledge and experience of the SCAPE artist’s work, production and presentation.Tasks and workload will vary according to the selected artist project with the most concentrated working period from mid-February to mid-March 2011.

All Art Project Agents should be based in Christchurch and be able to share their local knowledge of the Christchurch environment.
