[Sponsor] The Pulitzer Foundation for the Arts presents: stylus | a project by ann hamilton

by Sponsor

Conceived in response to the Pulitzer’s mission to be both a sanctuary and laboratory, the installation is structured around live acoustic elements and will be punctuated by participatory workshops which will occur throughout the project. This installation offers many opportunities for visitors to interact directly with Ann Hamilton’s work.
