posted at 16:45 GMT by T.Whid in /news/twhid
NEW YORK, NY—Rhizome.org is pleased to announce that seven artists/groups have been awarded commissions to assist them in creating original works of net art through its Commissioning Program. Paul Catanese, Warren Sack, Jason van Anden, Luis Hernandez Galvan and Carlo Zanni will receive awards of $2,500-2,900 each. Commissions of $1,750 will be awarded to Kabir Carter and C-Level.
A panel of jurors—independent curator Yukiko Shikata, Francis Hwang of Rhizome.org, Natalie Bookchin of The Art Center, and Rachel Greene of Rhizome.org—selected six winners and one Honorable Mention from a pool of about fifty proposals that were received by the March 7, 2004 deadline. Members of the Rhizome.org community participated in the evaluation process through secure web-based ballots, selecting a proposal by artist Carlo Zanni to win a commission.
The chosen projects will be publicly exhibited on the Rhizome.org web site at http://rhizome.org starting in November 2004. They will also be preserved in the Rhizome ArtBase archive, and presented at a public event in New York City.
