Mission

The American Vicarious is a not-for-profit generator of creative content across disciplinary boundaries that aspires to reflect on America's ideals and realities, and that which unites and divides its people.

Program accomplishments

  • The artistic work of the American Vicarious does not directly portray American society at any one time, in any one way. It is specifically ambiguous, encourages a sense of timelessness and universal applicability. In this way, the American Vicarious attempts to portray what it sees as the universal conflicts and currents that drive American society, and the way those conflicts and currents have produced an American society that is both messy but also founded on common ideals of justice, freedom, and citizen's responsibility.
