            DIRECTOR, VISUAL ARTS PROGRAM

            The Massachusetts Institute of Technology is seeking
an individual of international standing and critical acclaim in
the field of art to serve as director of its Visual Arts Program.
His or her accomplishments may be in artistic production, design,
or critical and theoretical works.

            The Visual Arts Program focuses on the development of
critical visionary strategies in artistic practice within the
context of the advanced technological community of MIT. The
Visual Arts faculty is composed of outstanding artists with
international reputations and with active careers in artistic
production. Students in the Program include undergraduates and
graduate students majoring in a variety of fields from
engineering to media studies as well as a small, select group who
make up the visual arts graduate program. The students are
intellectually gifted and highly motivated. Under the aegis of
the School of Architecture and Planning, the Program has the
capacity to create links with Architectural Design, HTC (History,
Theory and Criticism), the Media Lab, as well as other MIT
research and teaching units. Important programs and centers at
the Institute with history of interactions with the Visual Arts
Program include: CAVS (Center for Advanced Visual Studies), CMS
(Comparative Media Studies), EECS (Electrical Engineering and
Computer Science), AI Lab (Artificial Intelligence Lab) and many
other cross-disciplinary groups.

            Qualifications: The candidate should be inspirational
and highly articulate in contemporary and historical issues of
art and visual culture. The candidate will be expected to develop
existing educational structures and methods that help bridge
student skills and interests with the creative practice and broad
knowledge of art. The position requires the administrative and
leadership skills necessary to guide the evolution of the Visual
Arts Program, and to represent the Program effectively within and
outside the MIT community. A substantial record of teaching at
the college, university, or art school level is desirable.

            The appointment can begin as early as September,
2003. Please submit letter of application, supportive material
and the names of at least four references to Professor Joan
Jonas, Director, MIT Visual Arts Program, Department of
Architecture, 265 Massachusetts Ave., N51-315, Cambridge, MA
02139. Review of applications will begin March 15 and continue
until the candidate has been selected.

            Materials will be returned if a self-addressed
stamped envelope is enclosed with application.

            MIT is an Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity
Employer.
