Eligibility and Criteria
Open to artists aged 18+, the prize seeks individuals at the outset of their artistic careers. Whether you’re freshly graduated from an art-related program or self-educated, if you haven’t yet gained significant recognition or exhibited extensively on an international scale, the scan.art emerging artist prize is your platform.
A Diverse and Expert Jury
Entries will be evaluated based on potential, innovative ideas, message relevance, and skillful execution by a panel of industry professionals. The prize is not just about the art itself but the story, the experimentation, and the growth behind it.
Participation and Application Fee
The application process opens on April 1st, and we encourage artists working in various mediums, including painting, photography, mixed media, and other innovative forms of expression, to apply. The application fee is essential for supporting the operational costs of the prize, ensuring a sustainable platform for artists to showcase their work and making sure each applicant will be carefully reviewed by our expert Jury.
Stay tuned for more detailed information in the coming days and weeks. This is more than a competition; it’s a launchpad for emerging talent on the international art scene. Join us in this exciting journey to discover, celebrate, and elevate the next generation of artists.
