| William H. Johnson, c. 1918 |
Are you an early career Africain American artist working in
painting, photography, sculpture, printmaking, installation, and/or new genre? Apply for the 2012 William H. Johnson Prize.
Deadline is September 28. The 2012 William H. Johnson Prize
is 25,000 USD and the winner will be announced later in the year.
The William H. Johnson Foundation for the Arts is a nonprofit, tax-exempt organization that seeks to encourage African American artists early in their careers through its annual award. The award is named after William H. Johnson, an African American artist born in Florence, South Carolina in 1901 who although acknowledged as the most talented artist in his class of 1926, was passed over for a traveling scholarship, most likely because of his race. Rather than see Johnson struggle in the United States, his teacher, Charles Hawthorne, gave Johnson 1000 USD so that Johnson could travel to Europe. This act of faith and generosity was pivotal in Johnson's life, for it provided the seed from which his career flourished. Apply online at www.whjohnsongrant.org
