Awards

This year, UOB has revised the award categories of the UOB Painting of the Year competition. We have created two distinct categories - Emerging Artist and Established Artist - to reflect the natural progression of an artist's career.

We have increased the overall prize pool to more than $200,000 across the four participating countries, making it one of the largest purses among art competitions in Southeast Asia.

One piece from the Established Artist category from each participating country will be judged the UOB Painting of the Year winner. These winners will then be considered for the new title of Southeast Asian Painting of the Year and a residency programme at the prestigious Fukuoka Asian Art Museum.

An independent panel consisting of renowned artists, established curators and influential art critics will help with the judging of entries. The judging panel are looking for artists with creativity, outstanding painting techniques and works which convey the artist's message clearly.

The two categories of awards are as follows:

奖项

今年,大华银行已修订大华银行全国绘画比赛的奖项组别。为反映一位画家事业生涯的自然发展进程,我们成立了两个不同的比赛组别 – 新锐画家及资深画家。

我们将四个参与国家的总奖金额增加至 200,000 新元,成为东南亚地区奖金最高的艺术赛事之一。

我们将从每个参与国家的资深画家组参赛者之中评选出一幅作品,以角逐大华银行年度最佳画作奖。接着,这些得奖作品将角逐东南亚年度最佳画作奖这个全新的奖项,以及著名的福岗亚洲美术馆所提供的一个驻馆创作计划名额。

一个由知名画家、权威性的策展人及具影响力的艺术评论家所组成的独立评审团将协助进行参赛作品的评选工作。该评审团期望能发掘出具有非凡创造力、绘画技巧突出并可藉由作品清楚传表达其讯息的画家。
