Deadline: 1 April 2024
Calling all artists eager to showcase their creative works! The Emerging Artist Prize is now accepting submissions from talents worldwide.
This year’s theme, “Cultural Crossroads,” encourages artists to explore and celebrate the fascinating intersection of various cultures and traditions from around the world.
The inspiration for the theme comes from Rove’s connection to the region. The Middle East is a beautiful melting pot of cultures, a place where the East meets the West, and heritage meets innovation. It thrives on exchanging ideas, art, and traditions with its diverse population.
The long-standing collaboration with World Art Dubai, organised by the Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC), has grown to become an important event for up-and-coming talent, attracting thousands of entries every year, and on this edition it promises to be just as exciting.
The shortlisted artworks will be displayed at the Rove Hotels’ Emerging Artist Prize stand in the event. The 10th edition of the MENA region’s biggest retail art fair takes place at DWTC from 2 – 5 May 2024 and will bring together 4,000 pieces of art from +300 galleries and artists from +60 countries worldwide, from emerging artists to established talent.
