The Center for the Study of Race and Ethnicity in America at Brown University is excited to announce its Spring 2024 cohort of Artistic Practitioner Fellows. Supported by a generous grant from the Mellon Foundation, the Practitioner Fellowship aims to develop artistic works that explore the intersections, aesthetics, and lived experiences contained within concepts of race, ethnicity, and indigeneity. Read on to learn more about each of our new Fellows and their ongoing projects.
CSREA’s fellows contribute greatly to the intellectual life of the Center. As they work through their ongoing research, writing, and artistic projects in community with one another, they produce new ideas about race, ethnicity, and indigeneity that inspire our community on campus and beyond.
This semester, CSREA is proud to host a cohort of eight Faculty, Postdoctoral, and Graduate Fellows selected from a pool of exceptional applicants.
CSREA’s Course Innovation Grant is designed to support Brown faculty who are eager to develop, revamp, or refocus existing courses to more centrally include topics of race, ethnicity, and indigeneity.
In times of social and political hardships, art provides a refuge of support, self-expression, protest, and human connection. The Center for the Study of Race and Ethnicity in America at Brown University opens its new Imagining Social Justice art exhibit entitled Solidarity, which highlights artists who depict unity as a means of resistance in their work. In the collection, artistic expression takes the shape of futuristic graphic prints, action-packed photographs, and vibrant collages, among other interdisciplinary and experimental forms.
