Bolsas da Fundação HARPO

As bolsas da fundação americana HARPO financiam pesquisas de artistas através de instituições sem fins lucrativos. A instituição deve mandar uma proposta, em nome do artista. Projetos de pessoas físicas não são aceitos.

Mission
Harpo Foundation was established in 2006 to support artists who are under recognized by the field. This applies to all artists whether emerging or further along in their careers. We view the definitions of art and artist to be open-ended and expansive.

2010 Funding Focus
The relationship between art and site in an era defined by digital technologies is the focus for Harpo Foundation’s 2010 funding cycle. Of specific interest is the dialectic between the non-locality of the digital world and the existential physicality of our everyday environment. For example, our sense of place is being drastically altered by web space, which brings geographically distant locations together to form a new kind of locality, yet what’s small, local, personal, political and natural informs our vision for a sustainable future; the search for place-bound identity persists.

The Future Generation Art Prize established by the Victor Pinchuk Foundation is a worldwide contemporary art prize to discover, recognize and give long-term support to a future generation of artists.
