Established in 2019 in Detroit, Michigan, the Modern Ancient Brown Foundation (MABF) supports creative practitioners who are interdisciplinary or anti-disciplinary in their making. Drawing upon the personal experiences of its founder, painter McArthur Binion– who has practiced across visual and literary arts–MABF celebrates artists working at the intersection of critical studies, creative writing, and visual culture. The Foundation aims to be supplemental to academic space and higher learning, where scholars may expand and experiment beyond their research, and writers and artists may engage in deeper critical analysis around their making.
