Share Prize 18th Popular Singularity

Now in its 20th edition, Share Festival – the Italian contemporary art festival exploring technological evolution and science – has reopened the call for entries for the Share Prize.

The Share Prize is Italy’s longest-running award dedicated to the most innovative artistic proposals within the international contemporary tech art scene.
This year, we delve into the contemporary scientific debate: Share Prize XVIII Popular Singularity is dedicated to imagining how research and technology can return to the human experience.

The competition is open to artists who explore the contemporary nature of our technological society through creative expression, in all forms and formats, including in combination with analogue technologies and/or any other materials.

New media art, video art and generative art, augmented reality and algorithmic art. Post media art, digital art, kinetic art and all other disciplines. Works from all areas of technological art are welcome.

The competition is open to Italian and international artists.
Each artist or collective may submit a maximum of 3 works, whether previously exhibited or not.

The Share Prize jury will award a prize of €2,500 to the work (published or unpublished) that best represents the theme of ‘Popular Singularity’ across the various possible forms of technological art.
The six shortlisted entries will be announced in July 2026.

The shortlist of six finalists will be guests at Share Festival 20th.
