Art Matters, an innovative nonprofit foundation, has announced their 2009 grantees. Congratulations to Arnold J. Kemp (CD '91) who is among the 23 recipients.
Art Matters annually funds grants ranging in amounts of $3,000-$10,000 to U.S. artists focusing on communication and collaboration across national borders and who are working internationally in all visual media including video, film, digital arts, performance (with a strong visual component), installation and site-specific work.
Kemp will use the funds for a residency in France to work with painter Pierre Soulages as part of the larger project BLACK ART INDEX.
