BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Launched in 2004 and based
in New York and Tel Aviv,
Artis is an independent
nonprofit that supports
and promotes the Israeli
contemporary art community
throughout the world.
We partner with a wide
range of international arts
organizations to present
projects and commission
new work by contemporary
Israeli artists. From artist
talks to alternative art fairs,
our programs offer artists
exposure to new audiences
at pivotal moments in
their careers.
We allocate $100,000 annually
to arts institutions, MFA and
residency programs, and artist
projects through our online
juried grant application
process. Artists, curators,
and institutions are invited to
apply for grants that support
intercultural exchange and
dialogue in the art world.
