South African artists are invited to participate in the 2010 PPC Cement Young Concrete Sculptor Awards (YCSA) competition. PPC Cement, in conjunction with the Association of Arts Pretoria, gives emerging artists the opportunity to express their talents through the challenging, but rewarding medium of concrete.
The competition has become one of South Africa's most prestigious art competitions. It is South Africa's only national sculpture competition presenting a high quality exhibition with this unique medium. PPC Cement won the 2005 Business Day/BASA "Long term Development of the Arts" Award for its sponsorship of the annual PPC Cement Young Concrete Sculptor Awards competition. Cement, and ultimately concrete, is an affordable and viable medium with which one can create quality works of art. Now in its 19th year, the competition continues to yield inspiring sculptures and the judges are looking forward to the best exhibition ever.
The competition is aimed at artists who are either novices or those individuals who cannot claim to be professional or successfully established artists. Participants should be 18 years and older and have recently become acquainted with concrete as a medium, through either formal or informal training in sculpting.
The 2010 competition process is about to get underway and all interested artists are encouraged to enter. Please read the "Conditions of Entry"and be part of this unique competition and the celebration of the arts.
