Living Free NYC Big City, Small Pockets, No Problem! 
Artists Wanted is a group of NYC-based artists dedicated to discovering and promoting the art world’s best new talent. With three years of experience and submitters from over 70 countries behind us, they are creating a new movement in art where artists are recognized because of the quality of their work not the depth of their connections. Their latest competition The Power of Self challenges artists to set themselves apart in an era where everyone has a public identity and fame lasts less 15 minutes.
The Power of Self // An Image Competition
www.artistswanted.org
This competition is about your story, your images and the power they hold. From Salvador Dalí to Cindy Sherman the self has been the subject of most all the art world’s greats. The self-portrait transcends medium, style and period, existing in the vast space between the personal and prophetic. We all have a self-portrait. Show them yours!
Their panel of judges including actor Steve Buscemi, director/producer Chris Weitz, Guggenheim Curator Helen Hsu and Flavorpill Founder Sascha Lewis will select one portfolio of self-portraits for The Grand Prize:
- Six months of FREE living at The Edge in New York City or $7007 cash
- An art-star reception in New York City
- International publicity
- A feature in 3rd Ward Magazine
The public will also cast their vote and the highest rated portfolio will receive The People’s Choice Award:
- $1,000 in cash
- An art-star reception in New York City
- International publicity
Everyone who submits will receive a “Thank You” package at the end of the competition with discounts and freebies valued at more than $95.
This is your moment to be discovered, send them your best work: www.artistswanted.org.
Accepting Submissions through January 14, 11:59 pm EST.
They expect to receive exciting new work from hundreds of artists around the world!
