CalArts Gallery

​​50+50: A Creative Century from Chouinard to CalArts is an artist-led scholarship endowment initiative that marks the 50th anniversary of the California Institute of the Arts and the centennial of Chouinard. CalArts has commissioned limited editions and series of works by a prominent group of 50 artist alumni, spanning nearly seven decades of artists emerging from CalArts and Chouinard. All 22 of the editions created for this initiative are examples of the material experimentation for which artists from both Chouinard and CalArts are known. All fifty commissions will continue to be released in small groups over the next few years. Sales of the artworks generate crucial funding for the School of Art Alumni Scholarship endowment, which provides essential financial support for students.
