FOR THE LAST 12 years,
Print has featured an annual issue called the New
Visual Artists Review, which introduces and profiles 20 of the most
promising rising talents in graphic design, advertising, illustration,
digital media, photography, and animation—all under the age of 30. This
competition is invitation-only: Our choices are drawn from nominations made
by art directors, designers, critics, and industry professionals. The issue
offers much-deserved exposure each year to 20 young artists doing innovative work.
The winners of the competition are published annually in our April issue. If
you are an art director or design professional and would like to
nominate someone for next year's competition, please email us at info
[at] printmag [dot] com with the subject heading, "New Visual Artist
Nomination." We accept nominations through the end of August. Designers
who turn 30 before March 1, 2011 cannot be accepted.
Judging takes place in October, and winners are notified in November.
