individuals who have worked as artists over a significant period of
time. The Foundation’s dual criteria for grants are recognizable
artistic merit and financial need, whether professional, personal or
both.
Lee Krasner’s Legacy
As
the Foundation enters its nineteenth year of grant making, it is
appropriate to recognize how significant Lee Krasner’s legacy has been
in the creation of this Foundation by helping to stabilize and to
strengthen the careers of artists, not to mention their personal lives
as they do their creative work.
The Foundation is pleased to report that since its inception in 1985, it has
awarded 3,205 grants totaling over 50 million dollars to artists in 72
countries.
