As a part of UICA's commitment to groundbreaking creative practices and the advancement of artistic careers, the Urban Institute for Contemporary Arts (UICA) invites artists to submit proposals for ArtPrize, an international exhibition featuring the world’s largest art prize. ArtPrize is a radically open competition and citywide exhibition. ArtPrize welcomes all media and is available to any artist who can secure an approved location to show their work.

ArtPrize has been created to reboot the conversation between artists and audiences on a grand scale. There is no single curator.
