Collectors Art Prize | Art Legends of Our Time

Who is behind the Collectors Art Prize | Art Legends of Our Time?

The award is presented by Contemporary Art Curator Magazine, with valued support from Art Market Experts and their invitation-only Private Collectors Club — a high-net-worth network of private buyers, curators, and institutional investors across the globe.

Why was I selected?

This is not a contest. You were chosen, not by chance but by an international curatorial review process favoring enduring brilliance over transient fashion.
Your art demonstrates timeless genius, cultural impact, and legacy-worthy mastery — qualities that place you in the company of the most influential visionaries of our era.

What does being a winner mean?

It means you’ve entered a new stratum of recognition.

  • Your name becomes part of contemporary art history.

  • Your work is contextualized not merely as creative output, but as cultural significance.

  • You step into an elite art circle where artists aren’t just seen — they’re studied, collected, and recognized.

What do I receive as a winner?

  • Double-page spread in the Collectors Art Prize | Art Legends of Our Time art book (global print + digital release)

Is this prize open to public applications?

No. The Collectors Art Prize | Art Legends of Our Time is strictly invitation-only. Artists are selected through a private, global curatorial process based on artistic merit, influence, and long-term cultural relevance. This ensures the prize remains a mark of true distinction, not self-nomination.

How many artists are selected?

Only a very limited number of artists worldwide are chosen per edition.

Will my work be promoted beyond the book?

Yes. Your recognition extends into a global online exhibition, permanent artist profile, and private collector newsletter feature, ensuring visibility across multiple channels of influence — from high-net-worth buyers to institutional curators.

Can I use this award in my portfolio, CV, or exhibition history?

Absolutely. The Collectors Art Prize | Art Legends of Our Time is an internationally recognized distinction. It can be included in press releases, exhibition CVs, grant applications, and gallery pitches to enhance your professional positioning and credibility.

What’s the financial commitment?

A one-time, all-inclusive fee of €350. This includes:

  • Double-page spread in prestigious Art Book

  • Global Online exhibition inclusion

  • Lifetime profile hosting

  • Design & promotional materials
    A portion of the fee supports UNESCO cultural preservation initiatives, extending your impact beyond the art world.

What’s the deadline to accept?
