Visual Arts News in partnership with the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia is pleased to announce our first-ever Emerging Critical Art Writer-in-Residence. Merray Gerges recently completed her undergraduate degree in art history and journalism. She also co-founded CRIT, a free biannual publication curating contemporary criticism in partnership with The Khyber Centre for the Arts.
To further develop critical art writing in this region, Visual Arts News will host a Writer-in-Residence in partnership with the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia (AGNS). The residency will be open to emerging critical writers for a 4-month residency/internship and is designed to help develop and promote the work of emerging art critics.
