Grants

The Brian Wall Foundation Grant for Sculptors
The Brian Wall Foundation Grant for Sculptors is awarded by the Brian Wall Foundation and administered by the Pollock-Krasner Foundation. The annual grant of $25,000 recognizes an outstanding sculptor from applicants around the world, providing financial resources to professional artists so that they may focus on their work. Funding can be used to create new work, acquire supplies, rent studio space, prepare for exhibitions, attend a residency and offset living expenses.

The grant will be awarded each year to a sculptor who applies to the Pollock-Krasner Foundation following their normal application process. Sculptors interested in applying should visit the Pollock-Krasner Foundation website at www.pkf.org to view and complete an online application. All artists who apply to PKF for a grant in the sculpture category will be considered for the Brian Wall Foundation Grant for Sculptors.
