Digital Arts Prize 2025

The Fondation Etrillard (Switzerland) and the Académie des beaux-arts (France) are launching the Prix Arts numériques (Digital Arts Prize), open to candidates of all nationalities living in Europe, with no age limit. 

This is the first time that digital art has entered the French Academy of Fine Arts. This new prize will be awarded each year for a recent digital artwork that resonates with the artistic disciplines represented at the Academy. This collaboration is part of a desire to promote digital art as an artistic discipline in its own right, extending the history of the arts into the modern age of new technologies. Interdisciplinarity and dialogue between tradition and new media are thus at the heart of the Prize.

Eligible work includes the following:

  • Digital artwork, whatever the medium used (AI, generative art, net art, robotics, mapping, virtual reality and more) 
  • Existing work: the artist submits a work created between 2021 and 2024 and publicly exhibited
  • Work that echoes one or more of the Academy's disciplines: painting, sculpture, architecture, engraving and drawing, music, cinema, photography and choreography

The Prize

Following a call for entries and the selection of three finalists, the jury will choose one winning work. 

The prize, which recognises the artist’s career and work, will be worth 20,000 EUR. The organisers will cover the hotel and travel of the winner of the Prize for the award ceremony in Paris, provided that the journey is within Europe.
