The 2026 International Artists Grand Prize Competition (I.A.G.P.C.) is a global art competition organized by the Taiwan International Contemporary Artist Association, designed to connect artists with international exhibition and market opportunities. Held in conjunction with Art Revolution Taipei, one of Taiwan’s leading contemporary art platforms, the competition provides a gateway for artists seeking exposure in the Asian and global art scenes.

Open to a wide range of artistic disciplines, the competition invites submissions from contemporary artists working across painting, sculpture, mixed media, and other visual formats. Selected finalists gain the opportunity to exhibit their work during Art Revolution Taipei in Taipei, where collectors, galleries, and art professionals gather, creating a dynamic environment for cultural exchange and professional visibility.

By combining a juried competition with a major international art fair, the I.A.G.P.C. positions itself as both a recognition platform and a career development opportunity. Artists benefit from the visibility of a curated exhibition and the potential to engage with sponsors and collectors, making it a strategic entry point for those aiming to expand their presence in the international art market.

Entry fee: Free entry.
