Rambourg Foundation Prize for Contemporary Art 2020

Actors from several artistic disciplines and some cultural sectors in Tunisia have a constant need for endowments in order to carry out projects that are part of a scaled down economy. The field of Contemporary Art is dramatically expanding in Tunisia which is why it now requires real structuring.To meet this need, the Rambourg Foundation has decided to refocus the Prize on emerging artists of Contemporary Art in Tunisia. This Prize will therefore make it possible to provide a regular event related to this sector and will undoubtedly offer visibility to the artists.

In order for their projects to be taken into account, applicants must comply with the following conditions:

• The Prize is open to candidates regardless of their nationality and their location, as long as their work is related to the Tunisian art scene. (which must be highlighted  in the application file)
• The project must be carried out in Tunisia.
• The laureats from previous editions can participate in the Prize, but with a different proposition from that presented in the previous edition. The project must be creative and innovative.
