The 2025 Guggenheim Fellowships were announced, honoring 32 visual artists including Theaster Gates and Sara Cwynar, alongside numerous creators in literature, film, and photography. Each fellowship provides substantial unrestricted funding between $30,000 to $45,000, crucial during a period when federal arts funding faces significant cuts. Edward Hirsch, the Guggenheim Foundation president, emphasized the fellowship's role in supporting visionary thinkers amid attacks on intellectual endeavors. The Guggenheim Fellowships, established in 1925, have allocated over $400 million to more than 19,000 fellows and will be commemorated in an upcoming exhibition at a New York historical museum.
The Guggenheim Fellowship celebrates a century of support for visionary scientists, scholars, writers, and artists, as intellectual life faces significant challenges today.
The fellowships provide largely unrestricted funding ranging from $30,000 to $45,000, essential for artists amid cuts to federal arts funding by the government.
