2018 FINALISTS

2018 Beautiful Bizarre Magazine Art Prize

During the first two weeks of July our esteemed Jury Panel were been going through the entries and making the very difficult decisions.  The overall quality of entries was exceptional, and we are deeply honoured by our communities interest in the first Beautiful Bizarre Magazine Art Prize focusing on contemporary art across all genres including fine art, pop surrealism, lowbrow art etc in all traditional mediums. It is clear by the number of entries received that this Prize is needed by our community and we are so pleased we can fill the gap and acknowledge the plethora of artists globally whose work focuses on the figure.

The Beautiful Bizarre Magazine Art Prize furthers our mission, to inspire creatives from around the world to pursue a life and career in the arts, and to help careers grow through our exposure of their work.

From the finalists, three winners will be selected to participate in the Beautiful Bizarre Magazine curated exhibition ‘Ephemeral’ at Modern Eden Gallery along side an incredible line up of over 65 of the best contemporary artists from around the world. And receive additional prizes including: a non acquisitive cash prize, advertising packages, editorial in Beautiful Bizarre Magazine, exclusive interviews published on the Beautiful Bizarre website, exposure to our 850,000+ social media community, and of course $900 worth of gift vouchers from Prize sponsor Trekell Art Supplies!

Plus in addition, three entries will be chosen by Modern Eden Gallery Directors Kim and Bradley to receive Honourable Mentions. Stay tuned to learn more!
