• To enter for the euward please submit colour-reproductions (photographic prints, 13 x 18 cm format, on photographic paper) of five selected works (per artist).
• Choose colour photographs of either five works from the field of graphic art (drawings and printings) or of five paintings (the originals can be of any format).
• The photos should be of a quality suitable for reproduction. Glue each of the photographs in the designated space on one of the pre-printed forms.
• In the space provided above the photograph, enter the most important information about the original: the title, technique, dimensions and year of origin. If the original is in vertical format, use the line labelled "vertical" for the required information. If the original is in oblong format, enter the information on the line labelled "oblong".
• Please use the back of the form - and only the back - to enter your personal details: name, place and date of birth, address of your institution, nationality, previous exhibitions or con-tributions to exhibitions and prizes (if applicable).
• You will need five forms altogether. If you do not have enough, simply download or photo-copy the form you have.
• On submitting your entry, you are in agreement that all the entry documents submitted remain in the euward-Archive. You retain full reproduction rights to your works however. Works by individual artists may be published by the euward Archive in an internet gallery. With your signature, you decide wether to grant the rights to particular works for this intended publication of the euward Archive. The works will not be commercially exploited.
• Following the preliminary selection procedure, the shortlisted artists will be announced on this internet page from 13th March, 2010. Applicants who are not shortlisted will not be specially notified or receive a letter to that effect. No reason will be given for the rejection. But rejected applicants can apply again for the next euward award in 2013.
• If an artist's name does not go forward to the final competition, that does not automatically imply a negative appraisal of their artistic work, since only a relatively small number of applicants can be chosen.
