Asymmetry supports curators and researchers with Chinese and Sinophone backgrounds through fellowships, scholarships, public programmes, research, and a specialist library. We promote meaningful exchange between creative practitioners, institutions, and publics to enable generative research, collaboration, and participation. Through five core activities—curatorial fellowships, academic scholarships, public programmes, research, and a specialist library—we offer career-enhancing opportunities while strengthening visibility for curators and researchers who remain underrepresented in the arts and cultural sector. By building partnerships with institutions, art spaces, and universities, we work to expand the landscape of curatorial practice and academic research, contributing to more equitable, inclusive and plural futures for contemporary art. Launched in 2020 by Yan Du, philanthropist and patron of the arts, Asymmetry is an independent non-profit organisation based in London.
We are seeking an experienced individual with a curatorial sensibility and strong interdisciplinary grounding in developing public programmes and leading research. The candidate should bring an established network of collaborators across the arts ecosystem. This is a leadership position requiring vision, independent research, conceptualisation, and oversight of Asymmetry’s activities, alongside excellent communication and team management skills.
