The Robert Rauschenberg Foundation Offers Grants to 9 Arts Organisations

Monday 30th January 2012

The Robert Rauschenberg Foundation was founded in 1990, by American artist Robert Rauschenberg, who sadly died in 2008. The foundation has a mission to promote awareness of the causes and groups that the artist held dear, and to provide philanthropic and educational initiatives to preserve the legacy of Rauschenberg's life and artwork globally. 
 
It has just been announced that the Robert Rauschenberg Foundation has released its list of recipients of the new Artistic Innovation and Collaboration (AIC) grant programme. The AIC is the first competitive grant that the foundation has offered nationally, within the United States, and has seen around $800,000 go out to a variety of groups and projects. 
 
Last year, the foundation invited 65 organisations to apply for the grant, with 9 grants being awarded. The following organisations were successful in this first round of awards:
  • Ballroom Marfa, Marfa TX
  • Bemis Center for Contemporary Arts, Omaha, NE
  • The Drawing Center, New York, NY
  • Heart of Los Angeles (HOLA), Los Angeles, CA
  • Machine Project, Los Angeles, CA
  • Mary Miss / City as Living Laboratory, New York, NY
  • North Dakota Museum of Art, Grand Forks, ND
  • Space One Eleven, Birmingham, AL
  • STREB Brooklyn, NY
