Art on Climate – International Illustration Competition

EVENT DESCRIPTION

The “Art on Climate” International Illustration Competition is now calling for entries. The competition invites illustrators from across the world to create artworks that address the theme of climate change.

The competition is sponsored by Allianz Global Investors, with the goal of providing a platform for the exchange of ideas and solutions to tackle climate change, and to inspire the public to make meaningful changes in response to this global challenge. It was first launched in Spain in 2019 and extended its footprint to Asia Pacific in 2021, attracting over 1,300 artworks from more than 1,000 illustrators.

In 2022, the competition aims to bring greater visibility to the issue of climate change by taking on a global nature for the first time, with entries welcomed from the whole of EMEA, the Americas and Asia Pacific.

Assessed and chosen by a panel of judges made up of representatives from the art community, such as Federation of Cartoonists Organizations International and Asian Art Association, the winning artworks and other selected works will be on display in a virtual art exhibition.
