  1. Condivi & Jach, Thank you for such balanced, fair advice! My gut instinct is to give the position a shot, and it's comforting to know that I'm not necessarily closing any other doors if I open this one. Best of luck to you both in your pursuits!!
  2. Question for both current and future grad students: Since finishing undergrad two years ago I have been working in a registrar's office at a well-known museum. My goal has been to return to grad school to focus on 18th century (with the hope of pursuing a curatorial career). Recently, however, I was offered a directorial position at a contemporary gallery. At first I wasn't sure if I wanted to delay returning to school, but I'm intrigued by the position and feel that I would like to try gallery work to determine which path is for me: the museum world, or the art market. What do you think- is it impossible to transfer from the commercial realm to a strong grad program? Is working with contemporary art going to hurt me if I decide to stick to my roots and follow through with 18th century? Any advice is much appreciated!
