THE SOCRATES ANNUAL
Each year, Socrates presents an exhibition of works created by the Socrates Artist Fellows. The Fellows are selected through a competitive open-call application process and are each awarded a production stipend, access to the Park’s outdoor artist studio, and the technical support needed to realize an ambitious project. The Socrates Annual highlights a diversity of processes, material approaches, and subjects that comprise the most compelling public art practices of today. 

The 2018 Socrates Artist Fellows are: Leilah Babirye, Sherwin Banfield, Amy Brener, Lionel Cruet, Nathaniel Cummings-Lambert, Ronen Gamil, Jesse Harrod, Carlos Jiménez Cahua, Leander Mienardus Knust, Antone Konst, Joiri Minaya, Nicholas Missel, Virginia Lee Montgomery, Nancy Nowacek, and Joe Riley & Audrey Snyder.
