PinchukArtCentre (Kyiv, Ukraine) announces the 8th edition of the Future Generation Art Prize, with the launch of the application process on May 11, 2026. 

Entries can be submitted online from May 11 until June 28 here.

Established by the Victor Pinchuk Foundation in 2009, the Future Generation Art Prize is a biannual global contemporary art prize to discover, recognise and give long-term support to a future generation of artists. All artists aged 35 or younger from anywhere in the world, working in any medium are invited to apply.

A highly respected selection committee appointed by a distinguished international jury reviews every application and nominates 20 artists for the shortlist. The winner of the PinchukArtCentre Prize automatically becomes the 21st nominee. These artists will be commissioned to create new works on view in exhibition at the PinchukArtCentre in Kyiv.

The main prize winner receives USD 100,000 split between a USD 60,000 cash prize and a USD 40,000 investment in their practice. A further USD 20,000 is awarded as a special prize/s between up to five artists at the discretion of the jury for supporting projects that develop their artistic practice. 

A major contribution to the open participation of younger artists in the dynamic cultural development of societies in global transition, the Prize has supported the artistic development and production of new works of over 100 artists in exhibitions at the PinchukArtCentre in Kyiv and la Biennale di Venezia. Alongside an open call, a global network of partner platforms and special correspondents work as ambassadors to encourage artists to apply for the prize. 

The Future Generation Art Prize is widely acknowledged as a springboard for emerging talent. Lynette Yiadom Boakye won the Prize in 2012, before going on to be shortlisted for the Turner Prize and a highly successful solo show at the Serpentine Gallery in London in 2015. The winner of the first edition of the Prize, Cinthia Marcelle, represented Brazil at the 57th Venice Biennale in 2017. Previous main prize winners also include Dineo Seshee Bopape, winning in 2017, who represented South Africa at the 58th Venice Biennale in 2019. See past winners of the prize here.

Maria Luigia Gioffre: Scoring Scrolling
1 July, 10:00–18:00, TQW Studios

The workshop adopts a practice-as-research method to examine the algorithmic production of gestures within contemporary screen-based theatricality. Focusing on TikTok as a tool for choreography, participants, regardless of their movement training, will work with social media-specific vocabularies (algorithmic curation, repetition, memetic circulation) and be guided in abstracting gestures drawn from social media feeds, exploring how choreographic scores for dance composition can be decoded through social media interfaces. Using a transductive framework, the workshop will translate content into embodied performance scores. Through processes of amplification (from screen to body), temporal distortion (slowing, looping, glitching), spatial reorientation, and redistribution of gestural agency across different body parts, participants will generate gestural sequences and transform them into micro-performative compositions. Within this process, notions of fragility, error, glitch, and body disarticulation/discontinuity will function as epistemic operators capable of revealing tensions between video-based self-exposure and live corporeality, thus approaching the human body as a site of critical interference within algorithmic choreopolitics.

Maria Luigia Gioffre is a practice-based PhD candidate at Accademia Nazionale d’Arte Drammatica Silvio d’Amico (Rome), actually affiliated as a visiting PhD at Angewandte Performance Lab; University of Applied Arts, Vienna. The outcomes of the workshop will be considered part of her research process pursued in Wien.

Call for Participation: Due to limited capacity, we kindly ask interested individuals to email marilupomeriggio@gmail.com by 30 June.
