David Antonio Cruz - Joan Mitchell Foundation Grant 2018

Congratulations to David Antonio Cruz and alum Evelyn Rydz, both of whom were among recipients of a Joan Mitchell Foundation 2018 Painters and Sculptors Grant. Individual awards of $25,000 support under-recognized artists whose works have significantly contributed to artistic discourse. Cruz's latest works include paintings inspired by poems by the Spanish poet Federico GarcĂ­a Lorca and an operatic piece based on Irish revolutionary Roger Casement's Black Diaries. Rydz, a visual artist and associate professor at MassArt, recently created an interactive installation at the Institute of Contemporary Art in Boston where visitors could investigate, experiment, and reflect on the imperiled future of oceans and seas.
