BECOME A MEMBER OF THE JURY
The constitution of the jury is fundamental to the quality of the awards ceremony!
Artcertificate seeks to move away from traditional juries made up of galleries, professionals or guests. We would like the artists themselves to be involved in the choice and final selection of the works. Why? Simply because they are the most qualified.
How to become a member of the jury?
Registration is free and open to all, just fill in the form.
It is important that each member of the jury be committed in order to carry out this task pleasantly and seriously. A member of the jury will not be allowed to promote his or her own works.
The selection will start after the closing date for registrations.
1) General selection
The aim is to select 5 works per category, i.e. 20 works. This is an important step because the selection of works must be quick, pleasant and fair. To do this, we will propose a selection as a game: Series of 2 works from the same category will be displayed. The jury member will then be able to vote for the work he or she prefers with a simple click. Once the selection has been recorded, a new couple of works will be displayed and so on. This selection takes place during 15 days and will determine the 5 preferred works per category.
2) Works evaluation
The members of the jury will have to artistically evaluate the 20 selected works using the following criteria: Originality, aesthetics, emotion, technique and give their personal opinion. This evaluation will take place during 7 days and will determine the 5 winning works. The GRAND PRIZE will be the work that has received the most recognition in all categories, the FIRST PRIZES will go to the 1st in each category. Ties will be broken on the basis of the comments of the jury members. The list of evaluations will be visible to all the artists who participated in the competition.
The official announcement of the results will be made on the website.
