EU 100 future-themed digital painting competition


 Share

Recommended Posts

The Estonian Government Office is collaborating with the Estonian Academy of Arts to organise the digital painting competition ’EU 100’ to visualise the effect that the trends of the European Union have on the lives of ordinary citizens and society as a whole, depicting various scenarios that are based on the developments of today.

It is an international competition that welcomes all artists regardless of where they are based. The categories are based on the priorities of the Estonian Presidency of the Council of the European Union, but also on broader, forward-looking themes in order to stimulate an exchange of ideas about how the EU could react to technology-related social change, including in the context of social care and the job market. 

The aim of the competition is to receive 12 different digital paintings that can be printed in a large format and used in various digital channels. The competition has 12 categories that represent life in the European Union 100 years after the signing of the Rome Treaty, i.e. in 2057.

The submissions must fall into the indicated categories (the name of the category will become the title of the work), but the works do not have to stick to indicated sample scenarios; artists can interpret the categories according to their visions. In the judge’s assessments, a panel of judges will look at how the works meet the criteria of the category, the technical quality of the work and the accompanying text by the author. The categories and sample scenarios of the competition are listed below. The submissions will be assessed by a five-member panel that includes representatives of the Estonian Academy of Arts and the EU Secretariat of the Estonian Government Office.

The competition is open to all artists, illustrators and designers who create high-resolution digital paintings. One artist can submit works in several categories, but only one work per category. 
The Estonian Government Office has the right to organise an exhibition with the submissions that have been awarded prizes.

The winner of each category will receive a €500 prize. If possible, three honorary mentions will be awarded €250 each.

We are looking forward to receiving many hi-quality works that help visualize the directions our society is moving into.
