    cool cool cool.
    fyi, I am one who has had over seven applications declined over the course of the grant program. there are many who apply, and painting and sculpture are only a fraction of the 'disciplines' where granting activity takes place. the foundation encourages those not favored to try to improve and reapply.

    outside of that, artists in real life establish reputations where they live and work, creating relationships during the course of their career with people who share experiences with them. the double-blind computer oriented decision-making process makes me personally feel disconnected. I would like to improve relationships between the art communities of two important NW states.

    Thank you for offering your perspective and suggestions, fran

    thanks for your reply. I get the notion from their correspondence with grant applicants.
    I just wonder how people who don't host contemporary alaskan artists at exhibitions nor visit anchorage to promote seattle artists would know anything about artist applicants to the RF. Maybe you know of connections I am unaware of. The Stonington originated here, it is true, and we have had curators from the Frye and SAM perform remote selections for our local museum's semi-annual shows of local art.

    Thanks again for engaging.

    any panelists for the rasmuson foundation want to admit and discuss their involvement in selecting Alaskan artists for grants and fellowships?
