KEYWORD:INTERNATIONAL
A catalyst for creative research and conversation
A community-building project and celebration
A collaborative initiative of Kelly-Strayhorn Theater
and Carnegie Museum of Art
A congress!
20 Pittsburgh-based research fellows consider the meaning of “international,” with perspectives from local to global. The creative minds of arts activators—from organizations large and small, independent curators and programmers, alike—present the results of their months-long creative research short, lively presentations.
Initiated in collaboration with The Carnegie Museum of Art on the occasion of the 57th Edition of the Carnegie International, one of the most historic exhibitions of contemporary art in the world, the project serves as a unique catalyst for exploration of Pittsburgh as an international city at this moment in time.
KEYWORD: INTERNATIONAL is a Pittsburgh survey initiated by Kelly Strayhorn Theater and Carnegie Museum of Art. KEYWORD: INTERNATIONAL is generously supported by The Benter Foundation and The Fine Foundation.
