We're looking for two University of Essex students to work with us through the Frontrunner internship scheme. The two internships are for Collections Care and Object-Based Learning. The deadline to apply is 23 November at noon.

We've loaned Jorge Macchi's Vidas paralelas to the exhibition Mirror Images in Art and Medicine at the Berlin Museum of Medical History at the Charité.

David Murrieta Flores, a University of Essex Art History PhD student, has curated a small display of Mexican prints from our Collection at FlipSide Festival from 2 - 4 October 2015.

Our amazing interns Hannah, Gisselle, Jasmine and Seb have now finished their current projects with ESCALA (although they are still finishing their MA dissertations) and so we asked them what had been the highlights of their internship and how their work with us had helped them with their future career plans.

We've compiled the list of Latin American art focussed sessions at the 2016 College Art Association annual conference.  Proposals are due 8 May 2015.

The University of Essex has produced a video with us celebrating our twenty years of collecting artworks and working with staff and students. Dr Joanne Harwood, our Director, talks about our recent exhibition Connecting through Collecting and how ESCALA helps researchers and students from all disciplines at Essex.
