Jerwood Drawing Prize 2013 - Selected Artists

The artists selected for the 19th Jerwood Drawing Prize (2013) have been announced.

76 drawings by 76 artists (see listing below) have been chosen from over 3,000 entries received for this Prize and associated exhibition. 24 of these were by those entering in the student category.

The Jerwood Drawing Prize is probably the most prestigious prize for drawing in the UK and awards the highest financial prize for drawing (£8,000).  It's certainly the country's largest and longest running annual open exhibition dedicated to drawing in the UK.

This is how the Jerwood Organisation describes it
Selected from original art works, and now in its 19th year in this format, the Jerwood Drawing Prize has established a reputation for its commitment to championing excellence and exploring the boundaries of contemporary drawing practice within the UK.

This competition is a platform for drawing practitioners to showcase their work alongside other leading contemporary artists in this field, and provides those selected with the opportunity to help define the concept of drawing for future generations.
