CONGRATULATIONS to Robischon artist Kate Petley, who recently received the prestigious Pollock-Krasner Foundation Grant for 2024-2025. The Pollock-Krasner Foundation aims to advance the practice of worthy visual artists by supporting them in pursuit of their proposed projects and future exhibitions. This recognition enables recipients to pursue concentrated studio time and the acquisition of specific tools and materials - all generously afforded them by the foundation. Acknowledged by many for her innovative techniques resulting in vividly dramatic abstractions, Petley's photography and distinctive work on canvas collapse the boundaries between sculpture, painting and photography. The artist states, "I am a process-driven materialist with a history that crosses disciplines while deliberately emphasizing positivity as an authentic position to contrast these unsettling times.”

Enjoy a brief glimpse back at previous Petley exhibitions, and anticipate more from this impressive artist in the coming year.
