Here are examples of the work being generated by our Rome Prize and Italian Fellows. The ongoing dialogues and collaboration taking place at the Academy speak to a vibrant community,  a cultural crossroads, shaping how we see ourselves and the past, present, and future.

E. V. Day, who makes sculptures and installations that memorialize moments of explosion, velocity, and spectacle, has recently become fascinated by baroque sculptor and architect Gian Lorenzo Bernini. Studying and experiencing the way he constructed seductive spaces and evoked motion and extreme emotion, she is finding inspiration for her own next series of large-scale works. E. V. is based in New York City.
