In May, organizers of ArtPrize 2014 had unveiled the official list of the five category jurors who will award $100,000 worth of prizes. As a reminder, the categories of work to be considered by the jurors include 2-D, 3-D, Time-Based, Installation, as well as Outstanding Venue. The jury contains two non-profit directors, a curator, a critic, and an editor. As the final days approach to make official connections between artists and venues, let’s look at this year’s panel of jurors who will have the say on awarding four outstanding artists and one remarkable venue.
<< For Best Two-Dimensional work, Juror Andrew Russeth will determine the finalist. Russeth is senior editor of The New York Observer’s Gallerist.
Shamim Momin, director of the non-profit organization Los Angeles Nomadic Division (LAND), will award the prize for Best Three-Dimensional work. >>
<< Co-founder of Hyperallergic Hrag Vartanian will award the prize for Best Time-Based work.
Presenting the award for Best Installation work will be Ariel Saldivar, associate director of the Goss-Michael Foundation. >>
<< Meanwhile, independent curator Tumelo Mosaka will choose the recipient of Best Venue.
From the total of $560,000 in ArtPrize award money, half will be distributed by its jurors. The other half will be decided by the public via online and social media voting.
On the first weekend of the ArtPrize competition, jurors will assess and select a shortlist of five entries for each respective category, making the sum of a Final 20 list. The Final 20 artists will then be eligible for the Juried Grand Prize of $200,000. A separate three-panel jury, which is yet to be determined, will decide which of the Juried Final 20 will receive the Juried Grand Prize.
Category award winners and the Grand Prize winner will all be announced on October 10.
