The Samuel H. Kress Foundation has generously provided the Wired! Visualizing the Past initiative with $24,000 for student research projects.

For the ongoing research initiatives of the Wired! group, see http://www.dukewired.org/research/.

Through its Grant Programs, the Kress Foundation supports scholarly projects that promote the appreciation, interpretation, preservation, study and teaching of European art from antiquity to the early 19th century. These competitive grants are awarded to institutions only. The Digital Resources program supports efforts to integrate new technologies into the practice of art history, including classroom applications and online publishing. This program further supports the creation of important online resources in art history, including both textual and visual resources. Key interests include digitization of core art history photographic archives and primary textual sources.
