The recipients of the Andy Warhol Foundation Arts Writers Grant for 2024 have been revealed. Thirty writers working in three categories—books, articles, and short-form writing—will receive a total of $945,000 from the New York-based organization. The amount each will receive ranges from $15,000 to $50,000. The grant program is aimed at sustaining critical writing about contemporary art and at ensuring that such writing remains a valued way of engaging with the visual arts.
“The thirty writers receiving support this year are working on projects asking urgent questions about art’s place in the world today,” said Warhol Foundation Arts Writers Grant director Pradeep Dalal in a statement. “Exploring topics including art’s relationship to fossil fuel extraction, Native art and activism, migration and questions of visibility, internationalist solidarity networks, DIY publishing, and LGBTQ comic artist communities, and covering artists working in Chile, Columbia, Japan, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Taiwan, Tunisia, Turkey, and Venezuela, this year’s grantee projects actively expand our understanding of contemporary art. . . . Despite the severe contraction of available venues for publishing in the arts, these writers continue to enrich and expand the academic disciplinary frameworks of both art criticism and art history.”
