Judith Rothschild Foundation
Category: Arts & Culture
DescriptionThe Foundation was established by the will of noted abstract painter, Judith Rothschild who died in 1993. The grant program focuses on encouraging interest in recently deceased (between Sept. 12, 1976 and March 7, 2008) American painters, sculptors, and photographers whose work is of the highest quality but lacks adequate recognition. The dates are established by Rothschild’s will, stipulating 15 years before the date of her will and 15 years after her death. Grants will support the organization of exhibitions, the acquisition of works of art for display and study in museums and public galleries; the development of accompanying public programs, films, or videos; preparing publications; scholarly and critical pursuits; and the conservation, cataloguing, and safe-keeping of works of art. Preference is given to projects which the applicants themselves have demonstrated a strong commitment. The Foundation will not award funds for capital projects, general operating support, endowment funds, unrelated travel and scholarships, and other areas of needs. It will also not award funds to living artists. Art in the following mediums is considered: painting, including works on paper, collage and relief; sculpture; and photography. Additional information including application instructions is found on the Web site.
