ABOUT THE EXHIBITION

The Florida Prize in Contemporary Art is organized by the Orlando Museum of Art (OM°A) to bring new recognition to the State’s most progressive artists. 2023 will be the 9th anniversary of this exhibition. Each year OM°A surveys artists working throughout the State before inviting ten to participate, with one to receive a $20,000 monetary award. Artists range from emerging to mid-career, often with distinguished records of exhibitions and awards that reflect recognition at national and international levels. In all cases they are artists who are engaged in exploring significant ideas of art and culture in original and visually exciting ways.
