Pollock-Krasner Foundation invites the visual artists who are painters, sculptors, and artists who work on paper; including printmakers to get benefit from its grants that are intended for a one-year period of time. The Pollock-Krasner Foundation's dual criteria for grants are recognizable artistic merit and demonstrable financial need, whether professional, personal or both. The Foundation's mission is to aid, internationally, those individuals who have worked as professional artists over a significant period of time.

  4.  The Foundation will consider need on the part of an applicant for all legitimate expenditures relating to his or her professional work and personal living, including medical expenses.
  5. The size of the grant is determined by the individual circumstances of the artist. Professional exhibition history will be taken into consideration.
