welcome
ARTOGRAPHY: Arts in a Changing America is a grant and documentation program created to nurture exemplary art-making that both ackowledges and engages the shifting national demographic landscape. We seek a deeper level of understanding of the impact that changing populations, cultures, and aesthetics are having on the American arts community.
For ARTOGRAPHY, exceptional artistic practice is the standard by which investigations into diversity must be manifested and understood. Artists and arts organizations should be empowered to describe (and inscribe) their own practices, and develop their own language of identity.
Now, more than ever, the obligation to broaden the discussion of diverse artistic practices and how they are transforming our understanding of culture is incumbent upon us all. ARTOGRAPHY reinforces this dedication to fostering discourse, ongoing learning, and artistic practices that address our ever-evolving society.
