The Derwent Global Art Prize and Exhibition Opportunity
Updated: 21 October 2021
Derwent, the internationally renowned fine art brand, are proud to announce that the sixth instalment of the Derwent Art Prize is now open for entries.
The Derwent Global Art Prize aims to reward excellence by showcasing the very best 2D & 3D artworks created in pencil or coloured pencil as well as water-soluble, pastel, graphite and charcoal.
Shortlisted artists will exhibit their work at Gallery@OXO in central London from 24 February – 6 March 2022. In addition, all the First and Second prize winners will receive a special box of Derwent Lightfast Pencils. The revolutionary core is resistant to prolonged colour change, ensuring artwork will not fade under museum conditions for up to 100 years.
This year’s entries will be judged by a distinguished panel of selectors comprising of an artist, a critic and a curator. Our final judge will be announced shortly.
