Three Iowa teens are finding their voices through very different lenses of a common creative vision, and in the process, embodying the spirit of the Grant Wood Art Colony and the artist and educator whose legacy the University of Iowa program continues to honor.Wood, an artist, teacher, student and traveler who found international fame with his paintings, explored many artistic realms, from metalwork to woodwork, as well as the Regionalist portraits of rural Iowa for which he’s best remembered.But it’s his passion for developing young artists and creating “a community of kindred spirits,” that is celebrated in the annual Grant Wood Legacy Prize, awarded since 2016 to Iowa high school students who excel in the visual arts.
