About the event
The Meridian Award is an independent international award granting a $1,000 unrestricted cash prize to one contemporary artist working in any medium. Founded independently in New York City, the award supports independent, self-directed contemporary practices and welcomes submissions from artists worldwide.
The Meridian Award is committed to recognizing and supporting artists whose work demonstrates originality, clarity, and a distinct voice within the contemporary art landscape.
The $1,000 prize is fully unrestricted. The selected artist may use the funds in whatever way most meaningfully supports their practice, whether for studio time, materials, research, or personal sustainability.
