The Homiens Art Prize is an international, non-acquisitive art prize (valued at $24,000 USD annually) open to all artists and art forms. The Prize offers egalitarian, accessible, and democratic support for artists, awarded every two months. We are proud to celebrate a large number of deserving artists, and exhibit their art online, where it can be viewed for free by anyone. In this spirit, we also offer prestigious publication opportunities, and work to raise the visibility and public profiles of the artists we champion.
“This recognition motivates me to persevere and continue creating and exploring in the future. Homiens has built such a supportive and diverse artistic community across borders, and I am so happy to be a part of it. Thank you, for this wonderful opportunity.” Wenhui Jiang (Winner of the Homiens Art Prize)
The Homiens Art Prize exists to recognise and celebrate talented artists. Homiens aims to lower barriers to entering the global art market, and exists to foster egalitarian, accessible and democratic support for artists. In line with this mission, the Homiens Art Prize and exhibition take place online, accompanied by a beautifully produced catalogue. The exclusively online format of our Prize allows Homiens to offer significantly lower submission fees than comparable awarding bodies, and also ensures equal opportunity for all artists, removing the expectation that artists who enter will pay to transport and protect their work.
All entrants to the Homiens Art Prize can access Jurors’ feedback, and are considered for exhibition by Homiens.
