more kudos for the ladies

Carrie Mae Weems has been awarded the 2005-2006 Joseph H. Hazen Rome Prize Fellowship. Congrats, Carrie! Here's her project statement from their site (http://www.aarome.org/rome_prize/prize_list_index.htm):
I would like to produce a new body of work at the cinecittà film studio using Rome and its architectural ruins as the social space to investigate the collapsing power of the state. Much of my work during the past 25 years has in one way or another focused on this issue. In this context, however, I am interested in the comic/tragic as a way of continuing this investigation, using elements of performance, theater, spectacle, and humor as the vehicle. Some might call this the circus.
