The Palm Art Award is aimed and awarded to artists of the media painting, graphics, fine art photography, digital art, installation and sculpture. Each participant submits 3 works.
The award will be delivered via the web and will be carried out in 3 selection steps: (1) pre-selection resp. invitation by the promoter, (2) presentation round and (3) award selection by the jury.
Enrollment
In the run-up to each (one-year) award cycle, an internal pre-selection search takes place, on the basis of which all artists selected for the annual cycle will be informed by e-mail about their nomination.
NEW: The PALM ART AWARD will be announced in 2023 with a new concept and for the first time much later in the year. The cover letters for the nominations for the PALM ART AWARD 2023 are expected to be sent out in March-April 2023.
Upon receipt of the invitation- / nomination email, you can easily register for participation in the competition within a period of 8 weeks using the received email form.
At the same time, send us the jpg image files of your three works of art (ca 1200-1500 pixel page length) by e-mail attachment to info(at)palm-art-award.com. Gladly also for a 4th work for us to choose from.
To do so, please state title, technique, size and year of creation for each submitted work.
It is recommended that the artwork should have been created within the last 8 years.
In case of repeated participation it is requested to avoid a repeated submission of one and the same work.
With your submission you assure that this work is your own work and in no way violates the copyrights of another person / party.

After receiving our confirmation email, proceed as described under "Enrollment".
