Competition: The Laudamus Award 2024 for Sacred Art

Christian Art presents the 2024 Laudamus Award 2024 for Sacred Art, supported by John J Studzinski CBE. (The First Prize Winner will receive £25,000.)

This prestigious award is a testament to the profound impact of sacred art as a means of praising God in the modern world.

In a landscape where contemporary expression meets timeless spirituality, the Laudamus Award seeks to honour artists who skilfully capture the essence of Christian themes, transcending traditional boundaries and embracing diverse styles.

Fr Patrick van der Vorst writes:

Dear Artists,

We are thrilled to announce the inaugural Laudamus Award, an opportunity for today's creative minds to express their faith, devotion, and spirituality through the powerful medium of art. Whether you're a seasoned professional or an enthusiastic amateur, we invite you to share your unique vision of Christian themes, stories, symbols or saints.

We encourage artists to explore the depth and breadth of Christian faith, drawing inspiration from sacred texts, historical events, saints, and the profound teachings of Christianity. Your artwork can embrace a variety of styles and mediums - from traditional paintings and sculptures to digital art and mixed media. This award not only celebrates artistic proficiency but also acknowledges the profound connection between art and worship. Through a careful selection process, the Laudamus Award recognises the ability of artists to inspire, uplift, and invite contemplation on the divine.
