Taoyuan Int’l Art Award now accepting entries
Organized by the Taoyuan Museum of Fine Arts (TMoFA), the 2025 Taoyuan International Art Award is accepting entries until April 26. This award is for new works presented publicly for the first time and which have never entered government-organized competitions in Taiwan.
Artists may participate as individuals or groups regardless of nationality or age. For the full prospectus, visit the official website (tmofa-tiaa.com).
The award is held every two years, with an international jury. The scope of open call has also now been extended globally, thereby strengthening international exchanges and laying a solid foundation for artistic research and creation.
For this edition, the grand prize winner receives NT$600,000, and three honorable mention winners each receives NT$200,000. In addition, a Sojourn Award of NT$350,000 will be offered to a Taiwanese artist for a tour abroad to inspire creation and cultivate artistic talent.
This year’s international jury is convened by Wang, and the preliminary review will be conducted by Abby Chen, head of the Contemporary Art Department at the Asian Art Museum of San Francisco; Reuben Keehan, curator, Contemporary Asian Art at Queensland Art Gallery/Gallery of Modern Art; Sunjung Kim, artistic director of Art Sonje Center, Seoul, South Korea; Po-Wei Wang, artistic director of Digital Art Foundation, Taiwan; and Pei-Yi Lu, associate professor at National Taipei University of Education, Taiwan.
TMoFA is a government organization running multiple venues. The main venue of TMoFA is expected to be completed in 2026 and become an important international arts exchange platform.
