With the 2012 presidential campaign heating up, we’re taking a momentary break from the politics and following a totally different campaign - getting the vote out for ART!

ArtPrize is the world’s largest art competition of over 1500 artists vying for the public vote. We are officially announcing our endorsement of Alison Saar with her entry “Foison and Fallow” - a bronze sculpture that is currently on view in the exhibition “Body Double: The Figure in Contemporary Sculpture," Frederick Meijer Sculpture Gardens & Sculpture Park, Grand Rapids, MI (September 19, 2012 - January 6, 2013).

As of noon today, ballots for ArtPrize have opened up for votes. To learn more about the campaign and to get out the vote, visit ArtPrize.org.
