The Artist as Philanthropist | ARTnews

In the wake of the devastation left by Hurricane Katrina, in August 2005, representatives of the New York–based Joan Mitchell Foundation reached out to the arts community in New Orleans in an effort to help. After corresponding with individual artists and arts-organization leaders, says Carolyn Somers, the foundation’s executive director, “we realized that returning to the studio and finding a way to continue to make work following the flooding of the city” was a major challenge for New Orleans artists.

In September 2005, the foundation made its first emergency grants to artists who were adversely affected by Hurricane Katrina, and in the years since, it has provided more than $3 million in support to both individual artists and arts organizations in New Orleans. By 2007, the foundation had concluded that the city’s infrastructure for supporting artists, even before the disaster, was “fragile” at best.

In the summer of 2010 the foundation made its first real-estate acquisition in New Orleans: a bed-and-breakfast in foreclosure on an acre and a half of land near the city center that was once part of a Creole plantation. It is now being transformed into an artists’ community.

Both graffitchik are natives of Germany. They got acquainted quite recently - in 2004 when were invited to the Spanish festival of sidewalk artists of Urban ArtFestival Sevilla. Up to this point they knew about each other only by hearsay.

After acceptance of the decision to work together they made by them the almost impossible. In the creativity they achieved very harmonious tandem in spite of the fact that initially their styles very much differed. Akut – the man, prefers classical painting and the correct receptions of drawing even on walls, Hera – the girl more, prefers spontaneous graphics which was born here and now in her head.
