Entries are open for the Absa L\u2019Atelier art competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The competition focus is on helping winning artists, between the ages of 21 and 40 years, grow their brand and learn relevant skills that will help them build their careers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are 12 countries that qualify to take part in the Absa L\u2019Atelier art competition. They are Mozambique, South Africa, Uganda, Zambia, Mauritius, Nigeria, Seychelles, Tanzania, Botswana, Ghana, Kenya and Namibia. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These countries are randomly divided into three groups of four countries each. Artists within each group compete against each other. There is no competition between the three groups \u2013 artists compete within each group only.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The artist is required to submit one entry that consists of a portfolio of a minimum of four and a maximum of five artworks. Submission of less than four and more than five artworks will result in the artist\u2019s immediate disqualification. Each group of four countries will have a different set of adjudicators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A single winner will be selected from each of the three groups of four countries. For example one winner from Group A, one winner from Group B and one winner from Group C.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The winner of each group will be referred to as an Absa L\u2019Atelier ambassador. Absa will then bring the entered artwork from each of the winning ambassadors, along with the Gerard Sekoto award winner, to the Absa Gallery in Johannesburg, South Africa. The above-mentioned winning artworks will make up the final exhibition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Alliance Fran\u00e7aise, the Institut Fran\u00e7ais d\u2019Afrique du Sud and the French Embassy in South Africa are sponsoring the Gerard Sekoto Award for the most promising South African artist who demonstrates continual growth in their work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Artists are permitted one single entry into the competition. This entry submission needs to be a portfolio of artworks that comprise a minimum of four, and a maximum of five different artworks to make up their portfolio entry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adjudication is done on the entry which consists of the portfolio of artworks. All entries must be submitted through the Absa L\u2019Atelier competition website. All entries close on 31 May at 16:00.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No late submissions will be accepted. Adjudication is done online via the website. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is essential when registering online and uploading your artwork that all fields are completed. Failure to complete all fields will result in your entry being disqualified.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
