A-TOM ART AWARD
Official SiteBACKGROUND
ATOM Co., Ltd. established the A-TOM ART AWARD in 2017 with the aim of fostering young artists and revitalizing cities and regions through culture. We believe that art brings diversity to urban areas and creates new value in real estate. It is our hope that this open call exhibition will serve as a springboard for the increased success of young artists, and we are committed to continuing this endeavor.
CONCEPT
This award is designed to provide opportunities for our winners to connect with society and people, offering "experiences" that we hope will encourage them to continue their artistic careers even after graduating from school. In addition to prize money and group exhibitions, we have offered a variety of supplementary prizes, such as visits to art fairs both domestically and internationally, and artist-in-residence programs in regional cities. As a contemporary art competition hosted by a real estate company, we are committed to the challenge of enhancing real estate value through the power of art and the talent of young artists.
