The Aesthetica Art Prize 2016

Category:

What Makes this event different?
Longlisted and shortlisted artists have gone on to achieve success around the globe, including Jason deCaires Taylor, creator of the first underwater sculpture park in Grenada and recently the artist behind an environmental installation on the banks of the River Thames. Chilean-born photographer Carolina Redondo has since been selected for In Search of the Miraculous at Newlyn Art Gallery & The Exchange and French photographer Noémie Goudal has had solo shows at FOAM in Amsterdam and The Photographers’ Gallery in London.
The Aesthetica Art Prize award attracts thousands of entries in a range of innovative media from locations as diverse as India, Japan, Australia, Germany, Malaysia, the Netherlands, the UK and the USA.
