Sue Johnson, professor of art, has been awarded a summer residency fellowship by MASS MoCA (Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art) in North Adams, MA. Selected artists for this highly competitive fellowship program receive private studio space on MASS MoCA’s campus, newly renovated housing, free access to the museum’s galleries throughout the residency, optional financial and business coaching from Assets for Artists staff, and a daily group meal.
Johnson will be in residence for three weeks and plans to create works for her new installation project that re-visions the modernist narrative as it sets out to explore how women have been pictured as objects of desire.
