Fellows Notes – Jan 12

January 5, 2012 Leave a Comment

New year, new notes from past Artist Fellows/Finalists. (Speaking of, apply now in Choreography, Fiction/Creative Nonfiction, or Poetry.)

Go see the 2012 deCordova Biennial ASAP (1/23-4/22). Why? Work by Matthew Gamber (Photography Finalist ’11), Eric Gottesman (Photography Fellow ’09), and 21 other terrific New England artists/collectives, is why.

The work and life of Karen Aqua (Film & Video Fellow ’11) will be honored at a special event and exhibition at the Roswell Museum in New Mexico (1/13).

Michael Hoerman (Poetry Fellow ’04) shares never-before-read-for-an-audience poetry at Literary Firsts, Middlesex Lounge in Cambridge (1/23, 7 PM).

Scott Listfield (Painting Finalist ’10) has work in Adult Swim (1/13-2/4) at Gallery 1988 in L.A. – and they used one of his iconic astronaut paintings for the show flyer!

If you’re within high fiving distance of Suzanne Matson (Fiction Creative Nonfiction Fellow ’98), do so; she received a NEA Creative Writing Fellowship!

Great interview with Christian McEwen (Playwriting Fellow ’11) on the radio show “Writer’s Voice.”

Monica Raymond (Playwriting Finalist ’07, Poetry Finalist ’08) collaborated via Skype with an actress in Finland to create a piece for the Internationalists’ Around the World. Also, hear her poem The Sacred on qarrtsiluni.

Superb, excellent, and just plain neato mosquito: Allan Reeder (Fiction/Creative Nonfiction Fellow ’10 and ’06) won a Sustainable Arts Foundation Promise Grant.

Daily swims during at a Blue Mountain Center residency inspired Naoe Suzuki‘s (Drawing Fellow ’06) Blue, showing at Brandeis University Women’s Studies Research Center Gallery (1/13-3/2).

He’s getting into Dodge: Michael Zelehoski (Painting Fellow ’10) has a solo show at NYC’s DODGE Gallery (1/12-2/19).

Read past Fellows Notes. If you’re a past fellow/finalist with news, let us know.
