Adrienne Huard Awarded Canadian Art Editorial Residency

The residency is a national prize awarded annually to a student with an interest in developing expertise in the realm of professional art-magazine publishing

Canadian Art is pleased to announce that Adrienne Huard is the recipient of the 2018 Canadian Art Editorial Residency.

The residency is a national prize awarded annually to a current undergraduate, graduate or other post-secondary student with an interest in developing expertise in the realm of professional art-magazine publishing. The award involves an 11-week summer residency at Canadian Art along with a $7,000 prize.

Adrienne Huard is a Two-Spirit Anishinaabekwe born in so-called Winnipeg and is currently based in Tkaronto/Toronto. After graduating in 2012 from the University of Manitoba with a Bachelor of Fine Arts majoring in photography, she decided to pursue a Bachelor of Fine Arts majoring in art history at Concordia University in Tiohtià:ke/Montreal.

Huard graduated from Concordia in April 2018 and has been accepted into OCAD University’s graduate-level Criticism and Curatorial Practice program, which she will be attending in fall 2018. Her area of focus for study is to challenge the positioning of Indigenous art and artists within cultural institutions, and explore how to better improve these relationships to facilitate the process of resurgence.

Huard begins the residency June 11th and continues at Canadian Art full-time until the program ends in late August 2018.
