The fellowship supports new research on Chinese art in dialogue with the M+ Collections. It reflects our commitment to enriching the contemporary conversation on art in the region and to building new platforms for research and debate.

The fellow will be awarded a grant of HKD 200,000 to cover all expenses, including travel, living, insurance, and research-related costs. The awarded fellow is expected to be attached to M+ for a period of three to six months. They will develop their proposed project in response to the research theme and will be able to access the M+ Collections both onsite and online, consult library and archival materials, deliver several internal presentations, and take part in discussions with curators and other staff members. This provides an opportunity for the project to relate to the museum’s current and future programmes as well as its curatorial and collecting strategies. The fellowship will conclude with a public lecture in Hong Kong and an essay in Chinese (at least 7,500 characters) or in English (at least 5,000 words) to be published on M+ Magazine.
