Lila Lee-Morrison awarded the Andy Warhol Foundation Arts Writers Grant
INTERSECT fellow Lila Lee-Morrison was recently awarded the prestigious 2023 Andy Warhol Foundation Arts Writers Grant under the book category. The program supports writing about contemporary art and aims to ensure that critical writing remains a valued mode of engaging with the visual arts. Lila was awarded the grant for a book proposal titled, Machinic Landscapes: Technology, Art, and Environment in an Age of Planetarity that will address contemporary artists who produce imaginary conceptions of landscape by recontextualizing images of the planet made by digital imaging systems. Running counter to scientific and military contexts of technological development, these artists’ practices address the figuring of diverse subjectivities as enmeshed in both technical and environmental processes.
