All of Manifest’s calls for entry are competitive. The stiffness of the competition has increased in proportion to Manifest’s growing reputation, powerful mission, and international reach. Our mission to stand for quality, to create a system whereby works are judged with objectivity as a primary aim, and assembled with as little subjective curatorial ego as possible has gained the respect of thousands of artists from all over the world, and a vast following of arts lovers, patrons, and supporters.

With this principle of reduction in mind, we have been inspired by the intensity of jury after jury to narrow down a collection of entries to a suitable exhibit. With this we have determined to push the process to the ultimate limit – from among many to select ONE single work to be exhibited in the Parallel Space at Manifest Gallery in Cincinnati from December 14 through January 11, 2012. This work will be the recipient of the third annual MANIFEST PRIZE, a cash award to a single work selected by our rigorous jury process, and presented in a gallery all to itself as the highlight of the process, an honor to the artist, and a poignant statement for gallery visitors.

The Manifest Prize was launched in 2010 as an annual offering. The cash award for this competition is now $1000.

Five semi-finalists will also be featured in the full-color exhibit catalog.

Eligibility: ONE.3 is open to everyone (students and professionals are encouraged to submit). The only limitation is that entries must represent original works of art or design and be available and capable of being exhibited in Manifest’s Parallel Space gallery.

Media: Open to any and all traditional and non-traditional visual arts genre and media, (including video, photography, sculpture, installation, painting, drawing, etc.). There is no size limit or minimum size requred, other than what is capable of being displayed in our gallery space.

Entry Fee: Each work submitted must be accompanied by a $10 non-refundable entry fee. Number of entries is unlimited. Entry fee must be paid by U.S. check or U.S. or International money order made payable to MANIFEST, or by credit card via PayPal. (If paying by PayPal PLEASE use the paypal link provided on the page that follows the submission of the online entry form.) Detail images may be included at no additional cost, but should only be included if necessary for understanding the nature or quality of the artwork.
