Nearly 5 million pesos in prize money will be awarded in the 31st edition of the “Arte en Vivo” competition, established by Librería Nacional. The initiative aims to promote visual arts in Chile, support emerging artists, and advance their careers by opening up creative processes, revealing working methodologies, and creating a kind of open studio where the public can observe the creation of the selected works in real time.
The 31st edition of the “Arte en Vivo” competition for 2023 will be hosted at the Gabriela Mistral Cultural Center (GAM). The eight works selected and curated by painter Jorge González Lohse, alongside jurors Natalia Babarovic, Isabel Croxatto, Natalia Arcos, Alfonso Diaz, and Martina Olave, will be created over a three-day period. This challenge aims to bring the work closer to the audience, foster interaction, and provide insight into the artists' creative processes.
