We have opened the application process for the 2009 West Prize. Free to apply for anyone over the age of 18 and with works priced below $10,000. We've improved the application process so that applicants can go back into their online applications to make changes and updates. The application process closes on November 1, 2009. Acquisition prize funds total $100,000 for ten artists with a $25,000 grand prize awarded to one of the ten.
Even if you aren't applying check out who is here.
Great find, your art blog. Thanks for the tip.
Thought I'd toss this interesting project your way: A BOOK ABOUT DEATH. Artists contribute 500 postcards of a work to produce a 500 edition book about death. Each card is a "page." Exhibition at the Emily Harvey Foundation Gallery in NYC, NY on September 10, 2009. Open to everyone. All details: http://abookaboutdeath.blogspot.com/
Now I'll apply for the West Prize... merci!
Best,
Matthew Rose/Paris, France
