The Art Newspaper

By The Art Newspaper. [UNDEFINED]

The Art Newspaper is looking for a experienced arts news journalist, based in New York City, to contribute—on a contract freelance basis—to our art market and news pages and website, as well as analysis/special focuses.

We are looking for an arts news journalist with an established track record to contribute approximately 3,000 words each month to the paper and website, following agreed commissions and deadlines. As this is a freelance post, you will be free to work from your own home/office and arrange your own hours, but you will be expected to attend editorial meetings in our New York office at least twice a month.

The monthly fee, which will be based on the number of words produced, is negotiable depending on experience. This is not a full-time contract (nor is it a staff contract), so you will be allowed/expected to write for other publications as well as The Art Newspaper.

Candidates should have a track record in news journalism, and be keen to learn or already have experience in art market reporting.

Please send an email requesting the application details with the subject line clearly marked "New York freelance reporter", to our web editor and New York editorial manager, Helen Stoilas, h.stoilas@theartnewspaper.com.

Completed applications should be submitted by Monday 23 January. Interviews will be held in New York week commencing Monday 30 January.

Please note: if you are looking for a staff position, if you are an entry level journalist or you are mainly interesting in reviewing exhibitions/interviewing artists, this contract is not suitable for you.
