About

The Pollock-Krasner Foundation gives financial assistance to individual working artists of established ability, internationally. Grants are unrestricted and intended to cover one year of personal and professional needs.

Applicants must be professional visual artists working primarily in painting, sculpture or works on paper (drawing, printmaking), with at least ten exhibitions in the past ten years at professional galleries, museums or recognised spaces. Photography, video/film, performance, commercial and graphic art, illustration, craft and AI/generative art are not eligible. Artists in US-sanctioned countries must contact the Foundation before applying.

Applications are accepted year-round online with no fee; most grants are around $35,000, with awards up to $50,000 depending on circumstances.
