Your voice. Your favourite.
Explore 247 artworks by 127 graduates from eight art academies across Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Finland and Sweden. Now in its 11th year, the Nordic & Baltic Young Artist Award brings the region’s newest artistic practices together — an opportunity to discover artists, explore their ideas and find work that speaks to you.
Public voting opens on 10 November and runs until 29 November 2026. You can vote for up to five favourite artworks. The artist whose work receives the most votes will receive the €500 Public Choice Award.
The international jury selects the Grand Prix, Painting Award and Photography Award recipients from the academies’ nominations. All award winners will be announced in December.
Participating academies: Estonian Academy of Arts; Pallas University of Applied Sciences; Art Academy of Latvia; Vilnius Academy of Arts; Academy of Fine Arts, Uniarts Helsinki; Turku University of Applied Sciences; Konstfack University of Arts, Crafts and Design; and Umeå Academy of Fine Arts.
