2022 Florida Prize in Contemporary Art

The Florida Prize in Contemporary Art is organized by the Orlando Museum of Art to bring new recognition to the most progressive artists in the State. Each year OM°A’s curatorial team surveys artists working throughout the State before inviting ten to participate. One artist will receive a $20,000 award made possible with the generous support of local philanthropists Gail and Michael Winn. 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.

The Florida Prize in Contemporary Art underscores the commitment of the OM°A to the art of our time, and to supporting artists who live and work in our State. This year will mark the eighth edition of the Florida Prize in Contemporary Art.

This year's artists are:

London Amara, Bonita Springs
Francie Bishop Good, Ft. Lauderdale
Tomás Esson, Miami
Dominique Labauvie, Tampa

The Florida Prize in Contemporary Art Award is generously underwritten by Gail and Michael Winn.
