About the Open Call

The Jonathan and Barbara Silver Foundation offers one $20,000 grant per year on a two-year cycle. The Writing Grant (even years) supports fresh thinking on the history, aesthetics, and situation of sculpture. The Sculpture Grant (odd years) supports artists demonstrating exceptional commitment to the medium. The program aims to support both emerging and established professionals who approach sculpture with a rigorous and provocative spirit, echoing the legacy of Jonathan Silver.
