Description

Submission deadline midnight 30th April 2017

The winning artist will receive a solo exhibition at The Herrick Gallery, London; a critical essay on their practice by art critic and curator Nicholas Usherwood and a £2,000 purchase prize of their winning work which will then enter the Priseman Seabrook Collection of 21st Century British Painting.

From the submissions 12 artists will be invited to bring three original works chosen by the artist selectors to form The Contemporary British Painting Prize: Group Show 2017 taking place at the Stables Gallery, Orleans House, Richmond Museum, London from 24 August to 22 October 2017. A panel of critics and curators will then select a prize winning painting from the 36 exhibited works, with the winning painting being announced on the afternoon of the Private View, on Saturday 26 August.

The Prize Winner selection panel judges for 2017 are: Elena Dranichnikova, founder of the Moscow Art Collectors’ Group (MACS) and founder of the Moscow School for Contemporary Art; Alice Herrick, artist, curator and owner of the Herrick Gallery, London; Jessica Litherland, visual arts producer, mac, Birmingham; Stephen Snoddy, director, New Art Gallery, Walsall; Nicholas Usherwood, curator, art critic, writer on contemporary art and editor of Galleries Magazine.

Artists of any age and nationality, presently living and working in the UK (except the Judges of the Prize, CBP artist members and the Trustees and employees of The Museum of Richmond and their family members) may submit work.

Submit a selection of 5 images (these should be j-pegs, ideally 1MB each in size) of your more recent work (along with a detail shot, so that the selectors can correctly understand your use of medium and ground) and a statement which outlines your practice to The Contemporary British Painting Prize. This first round of submissions will then be assessed by a group of practising painters who for 2017 are Julian Brown, Matthew Krishanu, Nicholas Middleton and Cathy Lomax (winner of the 2016 Contemporary British Painting Prize).

Submission fee: £18
