Artadia Awardees were selected through a rigorous two-tiered jury process and a panel of five prominent jurors— Sanford Biggers (artist, New York), Dan Cameron (Director, Prospect.1 New Orleans), Peter Eleey (Visual Arts Curator, Walker Art Center, Minneapolis), Rita Gonzalez (Assistant Curator of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles County Museum of Art), and Randi Hopkins (Associate Curator, Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston). José Luis Blondet, Curator of Visual Arts at the BCA, organized the exhibition.

This is Artadia’s second awards cycle in Boston, following the inaugural cycle in 2007 and exhibition in 2008, also at the BCA’s Mills Gallery. The current exhibit, Artadia Boston, features new and recent work by these exceptional Boston-based artists.
