The roster consists of the artists’ names, titles of works, categories the works qualified in, and the artists’ nationalities. Another roster of our finalists will be posted on December 9th, and the images of all of our semi-finalists along with finalists, honorable mentions and winners will be posted on January 13^th, when we announce the final results of the competition.

When talking about competitions and exhibitions dedicated to 21^st Century Realism, The International ARC Salon is the largest in the world in terms of entries, and the most diverse in terms of categories and international participation. This makes the International ARC Salon Competition the most influential and far reaching competition for Contemporary Realism in the world, offering over $130,000 in cash awards and international recognition through partnerships with prestigious magazines, galleries and museums, with live exhibitions and a strong online presence. The top award this year is $25,000 for Best in Show and over 140 awards and honorable mentions are being offered.
