Graham Foundation announces 2017 grants for individuals

The Graham Foundation has announced this year’s class of 72 grantees. Over $560,000 is being awarded to individuals and teams, with projects ranging from exhibitions and publications to live performances and site-specific installations.

The 72 projects were selected from over 700 applications, which came from around the world. The grantees hail from 20 different countries, from fields including architecture, design, curation, filmmaking, visual arts, music, and writing.

“Many of our grantees this year are exploring the agency of design,” explained Graham Foundation director Sarah Herda in a press release. “They are testing the limits of conventional practice to make new work that directly engages the social and political dimensions of the designed environment.”

In the past 61 years, the Graham Foundation has awarded grants to more than 4,300 projects.
