the mark tanner sculpture award

The Mark Tanner Sculpture Award is the most significant award for emerging artists working in the field of sculpture in the UK. It is unique in its combination of offering financial support towards the production of new work, plus a solo exhibition to an exceptional sculptor. 

There is no age limit, applicants will be judged on the quality of their work and the ability of the award to make a beneficial impact on their practice and future development.

We seek to reward outstanding and innovative practice in the field of sculpture and are particularly interested in work that demonstrates a commitment to process and materials.
