Ruth Beraha and Agostino Iacurci are the 2019-20 winners of the Premio New York. Ruth Beraha was born in Milan in 1986; her project is "The Voice from the Underground," a fictional art history surviving in an iconoclastic era). Agostino Iacurci was born in Foggia in 1986; his project is "Tracing Vitruvio," an oneiric journey through the pages of De Architectura.
The Premio brings promising emerging Italian artists to New York for a 6-month residency at the ISCP (International Studio and Curatorial Program) in Brooklyn, with the support of the Academy, the Italian Cultural Institute in New York, and—in Italy—the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation and the Italian Ministry of Cultural Heritage and Activities and Tourism.
