ALA Art Prize is a recognition aimed at promoting contemporary creativity and site-specific artistic production.
Open to all languages of the visual arts, the Prize is awarded on the recommendation of a Scientific Committee made up of international profile curators to a contemporary artist invited to present an original project for the spaces of ALA’s Headquarters in Naples.
The formula adopted is an annual, free open call. After the first edition dedicated to visual artists active in Campania, since 2022 the Prize has been open to the whole national territory and to artists under 40, identifying certain relevant issues of the contemporary debate as a drive for the design of the work.
The value assigned to artistic creation, in interaction with the context and with those who experience it, is key to ALA. To further stimulate this relationship, since 2022 the ALA Art Prize has involved its team in the selection of the winning artist.
