Call for entries

The Monsignor Sante Montanaro Foundation announces the third edition of the International Don Sante Prize for Contemporary Art, aimed at promoting and enhancing art in the area in memory of Don Sante, an illustrious citizen of Casamassima, historian, and lover of art, music, and literature.

The theme of the competition will be “Reality as a mirror of the inner dimension: new geographies of expression.” This theme represents an invitation to reflect on the present, encouraging artists to explore its dynamics, between interiority and exteriority, between the subjective world and the surrounding reality, presenting updated visions of the contemporary according to their personal languages.

The Prize is open to all Artists, without age, gender, nationality, or other qualifications. Each artist can participate with only one work, published or unpublished. The work must not visibly bear the artist’s name to allow free evaluation by the Scientific Committee.

Techniques: painting, sculpture and installation, photographic art, video art, performance, virtual and multimedia art.

The single winning artist will be awarded the Don Sante Prize for contemporary art, which consists of a purchase prize of € 2000.00. The work will become part of the collection of the Monsignor Sante Montanaro Foundation. The registration for the Prize is entirely free. The registration date has been extended. Artists can register by March 6, 2025.
