New Contemporaries Director, Kirsty Ogg said: “New Contemporaries celebrates its 70th anniversary in 2019. While we will take this moment to pause and reflect back on our incredibly rich history, it is important that we also remain responsive to the needs of emerging artists. Opening up our annual call to artists outside of formal, degree-awarding programmes has been a significant moment for us, and a way to publicly acknowledge that not all artists follow the same path when developing practice”.
New Contemporaries, a UK organization supporting emergent art practice from British arts education, offers an insight into today’s creative practices, showcasing some of the most dynamic work being made.
Submissions for 2019 will open 10am (GMT), December 10, 2018 and close 2pm (GMT) January 28, 2019. The 2019 show will mark the 70th anniversary of New Contemporaries and follows the success of Bloomberg New Contemporaries 2018 on display at the South London Gallery (SLG) until February 24, 2019.
