In December 2019 Amy Hicks (Associate Professor, Lens Media) received a competitive grant from Added Velocity for Grizzly Grizzly, an artist collective based in Philadelphia. Added Velocity is administered by Temple Contemporary at the Tyler School of Art and Architecture with generous support from the William Penn Foundation. This selective award was given to five ambitious projects led by Philadelphia-based artists to build on the successes of their 2018-19 Velocity Fund initiatives. Applications were reviewed by a distinguished panel of arts administrators and curators: Courtney Fink, co-founder and executive director of Common Field; Margot Norton, curator at the New Museum in New York City; and Philadelphia-based independent curator Blake Bradford. The five grantees’ proposals for 2020 include a wide range of projects –from walking tours to speculative time portals, magazines to youth-led projects– each with the goal of deepening impact within Philadelphia communities through creative intervention.
