F.A.Q.
What is Art Association Aps Moho?
Art Association Aps Moho has more than three years experience in art promotion, specifically- it helds and runs artistic events and competitions involving young talent from all across Europe. The 2013 contest is natural continuation of Yicca 2009 contest, which had great success with its over than 1000 participants and prompted the association to expand its relations and cooperation with galleries and professionals.
It is absolutely obvious that that promotion of "our" talents at the art market is our main aim. All association's staff and all contacts are included in the 'contact' section.
Why should I join Yicca 2013 competition?
The most direct and useful way to show yourself and become well- known is certainly through the public exposition of your own work and own artistic research.
If exhibition scenery takes place in one of the most exciting cities for contemporary art, and is supporedt by young but also very enterprising Czech gallery, Yicca 2013 is certainly a competition not to be missed.
What will be the prize for the selected artists?
The first and second classified will receive a money prize of value respectively of Euro 3,000.00 (three thousand/00) and 1000.00 (thousand/00)
The selected artists will have the opportunity to exhibit the submitted works in an art gallery of a European city during November 2013.
Their works will be published on the catalogue 'YICCA 2013' and the selected artists will have the possibility to stay in Prague free of charge during the opening day.
