In the Spirit of Innovation
First held in 1994, the Philippine Art Awards has evolved through the years. It has been previously presented as an integral part of the ASEAN Art Awards, where the Philippine winners compete with their counterparts from Brunei Darussalam, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam.
In 2005, after 10 years, as the ASEAN Finals bade goodbye from the regional arena, the Philippine competition continued and the Philippine Art Awards provided the much needed arena for emerging visual artists nationwide.
After almost 15 years, the Philippine Art Awards has maintained its stature as the Philippines' most preeminent contemporary two-dimensional art competition and exhibition.
As a commitment to support the Filipino artists and the art community, the Philippine Art Awards was reformatted in 2007 and made the art competition a much wider and grander two-tiered, bi-annual event involving four Philippine regional competitions - Metro Manila, Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao.
Ten equal winners were selected from each of the regional-level competition. All of the forty (40) regional winners moved on to compete in the national-level competition in April this year. Out of the 40 regional winners, eight (8) national winners have been selected - i.e., the Grand Prize winner, five (5) Jurors' Choice Award of Excellence, and two (2) Jurors' Choice Award of Merit.
