ARTIST MARJETICA POTRC NAMED VERA LIST CENTER FELLOW

The New School has announced that the Slovenian artist and architect Marjetica Potrc will serve as a fellow at the Vera List Center for Art and Politics for the 2007–2008 academic year. The fellowship will support the creation of Potrc’s latest work, an exploration of sustainability through the lens of water and its impact on major urban centers, including New Orleans and New York City. The resulting project will be presented at “Something for Nothing,” an exhibition opening in January at the Contemporary Art Center in New Orleans, as well as at a conference at the New School scheduled to take place in the spring of 2008.
