ZA South Africa
The 2000 FNB Vita Art Prize public nomination year is drawing to a close.
This exciting, often controversial competition, held in collaboration with
the Sandton Civic Gallery was introduced in 1996 in response to the need for
acknowledgment of cutting edge, South African contemporary art.
Up to six artists will be chosen by a panel of judges as well as through the
public votes, each of whom will receive R8000 towards producing work for a
group exhibition to be held at the Sandton Civic Gallery, Johannesburg from
July 25 - August 26, 2000. One overall winner will be chosen from these
works to receive the grand prize totaling R30 000.
Members of the public are invited to nominate any artist countrywide, whose
work has been exhibited in a recognised gallery between January and December
1999.
Simply complete the nomination form, available in all participating
galleries and return postage paid to FNB Vita Awards.
Remember, the closing date for public nominations for the FNB Vita Art Prize
is
January 31st 2000.
