News: McKnight Artist Fellowship for Visual Artists

The Minneapolis College of Art and Design (MCAD) is pleased to announce the four artists selected to receive the 2007-08 McKnight Artist Fellowships for Visual Artists. They are Andrea Carlson, Stacey Davidson, Amy DiGennaro and Megan Vossler, all from the Twin Cities area.

Designed to identify and support outstanding mid-career Minnesota artists, the McKnight Artist Fellowships for Visual Artists provide recipients with $25,000 stipends, public recognition, professional encouragement and a catalog and exhibition at MCAD Gallery in the summer of 2008. The fellowships are funded by a generous grant from The McKnight Foundation and administered by the Minneapolis College of Art and Design.

The Fellows were chosen from a field of 170 applicants. The selections were made by a panel composed of Paul Ha, director of the Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis; Janet Koplos, senior editor of Art in America; and Glenn Ligon, an artist who lives and works in New York.
