Karen YU
Grants
To explore New York’s ecosystem of independent artists and entities, cross-disciplinary communities, and institutions, examining how support structures and audience engagement shape creative practices in performance and sound. Yu’s research will focus on how organizations of different scales collaborate, sustain artistic production, and cultivate audiences open to experimental or unfamiliar listening. Performances, exhibitions, public programs, and informal gatherings will serve as key sites of study, while conversations with artists, curators, and programmers will offer insight into support systems and community-building approaches shaped within the dense environment of New York. Insights into these curatorial strategies and listening-focused experiences will inform her curatorial practice and efforts to develop inclusive, accessible listening spaces and approaches.
