The Fondation Etrillard and the Académie des beaux-arts are presenting the Prix Arts numériques (Digital Arts Prize).
Open to candidates of all nationalities living in Europe, with no age limit, this new prize will be awarded each year for a recent digital artwork that resonates with the artistic disciplines represented at the Academy. This collaboration between the French Academy of Fine Arts and the Foundation is part of a desire to promote digital art as an artistic discipline in its own right, extending the history of the arts into the modern age of new technologies. Interdisciplinarity and dialogue between tradition and new media are thus at the heart of the Prize.
Following a call for entries and the selection of three finalists, the jury will choose one winning work. The prize, which recognises the artist's career and work, will be worth €20,000.
