Art Competition

The RG10 Gallery Art Competition invites artists from around the world to submit their works on selected themes. Each theme-based competition is juried by an international panel based in Vienna.

Artists worldwide are encouraged to submit their artworks through our online platform, see the form below. There is a special focus on Asian and African artists, who remain relatively underrepresented in Austria; therefore, the competitions are promoted particularly in those regions.

The winning works will receive a prize fee, a certificate, and will be showcased at an exhibition in Vienna. The competitions are open to artists of all skill levels. AI-generated art is part of a dedicated category and should therefore not be submitted under other sections.
