We believe that if we give artists enough funding, time, and space to realize their vision, the work they produce will change the way we experience the world. These are often small propositions that (like all great art) challenge the familiar ways we perceive value, and so we seek out extraordinary artists whose work is not easily monetized, or who are underrepresented as a result of gender, class, race, sexuality, or geography; we do this not so much because it's right (it is), but because it's interesting—it leads to good things. All we want is to be a catalyst for artistic experimentation (which often means failure). It's as simple and as hard as that.
