Duffy will follow this with a Bogliasco Fellowship at the Liguria Study Center for the Arts and Humanitites on the Italian Riviera.  Applicants for these Fellowships demonstrate significant achievement in their disciplines, and take up projects leading to the completion of an artistic, literary, or scholarly work, followed by publication, performance, exhibition, or other public presentation.
