The Joan Mitchell Foundation
Established in 1993, the Joan Mitchell Foundation celebrates the legacy of Joan Mitchell and expands her vision to support the aspirations and development of diverse contemporary visual artists. They work to broaden the recognition of artists and their essential contributions to communities and society. They focus on two objectives: First, the study, preservation, and exhibition of the work of Joan Mitchell, as well as the examination and documentation of her life. Second, they assist in the development, growth, and continued maturation of contemporary visual artists by providing support for painters and sculptors throughout all stages of their careers.
To meet the needs of visual artists, the Foundation has developed several programs. These include direct awards to painters and sculptors, support for the documentation of the work of older artists to ensure the preservation of their individual legacies, a comprehensive program of free art education for New York City youth through after school, Saturday, and summer classes, and emergency funding to individual artists and arts communities in need of support after a disaster. In addition to these programs the Foundation is establishing an artists residency in the Joan Mitchell Center in New Orleans. Complementary programs will be developed in collaboration with local arts organizations that will allow the Foundation to expand its support for the New Orleans visual arts community.
As part of its ongoing partnership with other arts organizations, the Foundation supports a multitude of services for artists, such as: professional development programming, documentation of work, exhibitions, and residencies. The 2012 MFA Exhibition at the CUE Art Foundation is one example of a collaborative project the Joan Mitchell Foundation is a part of, others can be found on their website: joanmitchellfoundation.org .
This current exhibition is up until July 28, 2012.
