Beautiful Bizarre Art Prize 2020

Global exposure + over US$35,000 worth of cash & prizes to be won!

The Beautiful Bizarre Art Prize recognises the most skilled, creative and unique contemporary artists within their category, as well as one extraordinary overall winner.

From the entries received, the 100 short-listed finalists [25 in each award category] will receive extensive international promotion through Beautiful Bizarre Magazine’s email marketing, social media marketing [over 1 Million followers] and website, plus enjoying additional exposure through our partners, friends and supporters.

From the finalists, 1st, 2nd and 3rd prize winners in each award category and the overall winner of the 2020 Beautiful Bizarre Art Prize will be selected by the Jury Panel and announced in early October 2020. The winners in each award category, and the winner of the 2020 Beautiful Bizarre Art Prize, will be invited to participate in the prestigious Beautiful Bizarre Magazine curated exhibition ‘Midnight Garden’ in October 2020 at Modern Eden Gallery in San Francisco, alongside an incredible line up of over 80 of the world’s best contemporary artists from around the world. Click here for further details on the ‘Midnight Garden’ exhibition and participating artists.

As a finalist, my Instagram and website have been receiving interest from a wider audience. Invitations to new shows have also come from the publicity the prize provided. One of the most sought after things an artist can hope for is name recognition and for people to see their work more widely, and the art prize has done that for me. – 2018 Finalist, Ariel Bowman

This is the perfect opportunity for artists to get their work in front of both the Editor-in-Chief of Beautiful Bizarre Magazine and the Directors of Modern Eden Gallery in San Francisco, plus connect with the 80+ artists participating in the Beautiful Bizarre Magazine curated exhibition.
