BIG UPS: Pew Center for Arts and Heritage announce grants

The Quay Brothers

The Pew Center for Arts and Heritage gave away over $1.1 million in grant money this year to fund new exhbitbits for you to get all hot-and-nerdy about. Grantees include International House for a sweet underground film fest, Vox Populi for an exhibit examining African American interpretation and the Slought Foundation for a recreation of an '89 John Cage lecture/performance. Out over everything, I'm most jazzed about the grant to the Mutter Museum, which received $250,000 for a production by local legends the Quay Brothers, who will make an animated film utilizing the museum's collection. These are few artists whose aesthetics are more in-line with the Mutter than Stephen and Timothy. Maybe Pew was inspired by Shaun Brady's cover story on the bros? RELATED >> Quay Week
