Rising Talents

I recently came across an interesting initiative for those interested in modern Art. The “Art Department” an organization based in Australia, has for the past six years hosted an International Art Contest which allows for young and rising artists to showcase their work, connect with each other and attract international recognition to their talents. Young talents are encouraged to submit their work in four fields: Realism, Modern Art, Mixed Media and finally Digital Art.
The last of such competitions, held last year (this year’s door just closed last week) awarded first place to the picture I’ve tagged for this post, entitled “Whispering,” by Mohammed Taha, a Sudanese who was born and raised in Kuwait! It’s quite unfortunate that we don’t have similar programs in Kuwait and the Arab World, while Arabs are quick to gain recognition elsewhere!
Click here to visit the website, in particular if you may be interested in competing or connecting with others interested in the world of art. The cool part is that if you come across a submission that you really like, it’s up for sale!
