As part of Dia’s ongoing commitment to elevating the voices, ideas, and contributions of young people, Fieldwork invites participants in our youth and young-adult programs to expand and deepen their relationship with the foundation through the research, ideation, and actualization of self-determined projects related to Dia sites. In 2024, Fieldwork engaged Walter De Maria’s The Lightning Field (1977), with five participants traveling to New Mexico to conduct experiential research. Fieldwork participants share their experience and learning in conversation with curator Matilde Guidelli-Guidi. Following the conversation, all are invited to a reception to engage with the participants and their work directly. Refreshments are provided. Matilde Guidelli-Guidi is a curator and co–department head at Dia Art Foundation. She is the curatorial liaison for Walter De Maria’s The Lightning Field (1977) in New Mexico. Fieldwork participants Archie Caride, Civic Pedagogies Fellowship, 2023–24 Elliot Kleinman, Civic Pedagogies Fellowship, 2023–24 Trisha Painuli, Dia Teens, 2023–present Melanie Pérez Lázaro, Dia Teens Apprentice, 2023–24 Noah Sablan, Civic Pedagogies Fellowship, 2023–24 Special thanks to Dia’s New Mexico staff, Holt/Smithson Foundation, and SITE SANTA FE. About Fieldwork Fieldwork invites young people participating in Dia’s apprenticeship, fellowship, and teen programs to propose and develop original projects that critically engage with Dia’s sites and their related environments and communities. Fieldwork projects stem from participants’ creative, intellectual, and professional interests, as well as their existing relationship with Dia. Throughout a year-long process, participants receive one-on-one mentorship from Dia staff and are supported in learning from and collaborating directly with staff and organizational partners. A small number of projects are selected annually by a panel of Dia staff and community partners to be realized through travel to sites and public presentations of their work and findings.
