The Minority Artists, Voice and Dissidence series brings together minority artists from diverse contexts to present artwork on the freedom of artistic expression.
The contest is for minority artists who have exposed, explored, and/or addressed matters relating to statelessness through their artwork. The contest is organized to support minority artists’ work on statelessness and to increase the visibility of their artwork, while raising awareness on the human rights of stateless individuals and groups belonging to minorities.
- Minority artists are invited to submit up to five works of art related to statelessness, as well as to complete the information requested at: https://freemuse.org/events/international-art-contest/
- Artists who self-identify as belonging to a national or ethnic, religious or linguistic minority can apply to the international art contest and any artwork with statelessness as a theme are eligible, including photography, painting, video, installation, drawing, sculpture, dancing, and music.
- A dedicated Judges Panel involving minority artists from various contexts worldwide, as well as involving the UN Special Rapporteur on Cultural Rights, will select three minority artists or art projects to receive awards.
