"The John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation has awarded thirty-seven Fellowships to artists, scholars, and scientists from Latin America and the Caribbean, according to Edward Hirsch, Foundation president. The successful Fellows were chosen from almost 500 applicants. This year’s new Fellows are from Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Guatemala, Jamaica, Mexico, Peru, Puerto Rico, Trinidad and Tobago, Uruguay, and Venezuela.
The Foundation grants Fellowships through two annual competitions: one for citizens and permanent residents of the United States and Canada; the other for citizens and permanent residents of Latin America and the Caribbean. Guggenheim Fellows are appointed on the basis of stellar achievement and exceptional promise for continued accomplishment. In its selection process, the Foundation consults with distinguished scholars and artists regarding the accomplishments of the applicants and the significance of their proposed projects, and presents these evaluations to a Committee of Selection, all of whose members are past Guggenheim Fellows. "
