WATCH ARTISTS COMPETE AS PART OF WESTERN CANADA’S LARGEST INTERNATIONAL ART FAIR

The Annual ‘Art Masters’ Competition Puts Professionals’ Creativity to the Test

Art Vancouver, Western Canada’s largest international art fair is back for its fifth year this April 25th to 28th, and with it returns the highly-anticipated Art Masters competition. Art Masters challenges professional artists to create an art piece within an hour, matching a specified theme and using a unique box of supplies provided at the event itself.

The competing artists are given just 15 minutes to explore their mystery box of supplies to decide how to create a themed piece of canvas art prior to the start of the competition, forcing them to think on their feet and push their creativity. For 2019, the artists are tasked with creating under the theme “uniting nations through art,” following Art Vancouver’s overarching theme.

8 artists will be participating in Art Masters, during Art Vancouver’s second evening on Friday, April 26th. Attendees also have the ability to participate in the fun, and will be given the chance to vote for their favourite painted piece.

Looking to watch this year’s Art Masters? All Art Vancouver ticket holders gain entry to the event at no extra fee. To purchase tickets, visit artvancouver.net. With an extensive speaker series, panel talk, guided tours, and more, Art Vancouver promises to offer something for both artists and art lovers alike.
