Τhe G & A Mamidakis Foundation Art Prize was established in 2019 as a culmination of the Foundation's thirty-year long efforts to strengthen contemporary artistic leadership and innovation. It supports contemporary artists by offering them the opportunity to create a new site-specific artwork that will not only become part of the Foundation's art collection, but will join an important cultural heritage as well.
The 2025 Art Prize invites Greek and international artists to apply. The selected proposal will stand out for its originality, creativity, and site-specificity.
The 2025 Art Prize calls for site-specific, large-scale land art installations created to remain on permanent display outdoors, and become part of a specific, configured environment; works which narrate an internal path/route, and which can be reference points within their exhibition space. The 2025 prize is open to visual artists working in one or more of the following fields: land art, environmental art, ecological art, sculpture, sound and sculptural installation, mixed media, and artists working with natural materials, creating works that integrate art and nature with the aim of generating innovative experiences in open spaces.
