SAATCHI GALLERY / SUNDAY TELEGRAPH ART PRIZE FOR SCHOOLS
|
Welcome to the Saatchi Gallery / Sunday Telegraph Art Prize for Schools for 2010. The deadline for entries was 6pm December 3rd 2010.
The shortlist of schools and entries to be featured in the exhibition at the Saatchi Gallery will be announced by the Sunday Telegraph and featured here in the next few weeks.
The Saatchi Gallery / Sunday Telegraph Art Prize for Schools is open to primary, secondary and sixth form schools from around the world who are invited to submit art work from students up to the age of 18.
Schools can enter as many art works as they wish, and there is no prescribed theme for works entered nor is there a restriction on media used (sculpture, painting, installation, photography and mixed media art works are all eligible and welcome).
The panel of judges this year is: the artist Yinka Shonibare, Margot Heller, the director of the South London Gallery, the photographer Mary McCartney, Alistair Hicks, Deutsche Bank art advisor and curator, Andrew Graham-Dixon, chief art critic of the Sunday Telegraph, and Rebecca Wilson, Associate Director, Saatchi Gallery.
The Prize is part of the Saatchi Gallery's education programme which is committed to introducing contemporary art to younger audiences.
More than 1,800 school groups have visited the new Saatchi Gallery since it opened in October 2008.
A first prize of £10,000 will be awarded to the winning school's art department, with a further £2,000 given to the winning pupil to be spent on art and computer equipment. Two further runner-up prizes of £5,000 each will be awarded to the second and third placed schools, with a further £1,000 to each of the winning pupils.
An exhibition of the 20 shortlisted entries will open at the Saatchi Gallery in January 2011, when the winners of this year's Prize will also be announced.
