The G. & A. Mamidakis Foundation established its annual Art Prize in 2019 following three decades of activity supporting contemporary art and visual culture. The program commissions a new site-specific artwork that becomes part of the Foundation’s collection and remains permanently displayed in Agios Nikolaos. For 2027, the Foundation is seeking a large-scale sculptural installation designed as a distinctive outdoor landmark. The call is international and includes practices ranging from conventional sculpture and installation to sound, ecological art, land art, mixed media, natural-material construction, and work connecting artistic practice with the environment.
Applicants must propose a new and original artwork for one of three potential sites identified by the Foundation. The selected artist will develop and produce the work between February and May 2027, with the completed installation scheduled to be unveiled in June 2027. The artist remains personally responsible for every stage of the work’s realization while collaborating closely with the Foundation’s Artistic Director and production team. The final artwork enters the G. & A. Mamidakis Foundation collection. Its construction, installation, and completion will be documented and communicated through the Foundation’s website, newsletter, social platforms, press activity, and publications.
