Gallery Prize

Gallery Prize

The prize
In its quest to recognize excellence, Gallery magazine organizes an annual prize to honor artwork exhibited in Lebanon. The second year will be for works showcased in 2021.

Nominations
Eligible artists can be local or from abroad, as long as their work was exhibited or executed in Lebanon, or on a Lebanon-centric digital platform. Works can be nominated by anyone, including self-nominations by artists, galleries, art venues, art critics, and the public at large.

The magazine
Gallery magazine is a quarterly publication dedicated to fine arts in Lebanon. It was first published in the autumn of 2018. The magazine targets readers who are interested in art, not just experts and aficionados, but especially those wanting to know more. The magazine covers all aspects of the fine art ecosystem, looking at modern as well as contemporary artists and their work. The magazine has an extensive section covering exhibitions in all sorts of venues including museums, art venues, and galleries. It is interested in established artists as well as confirmed emerging talent.

Jury
