Sint-Niklaas 2013 bookplates and small printmaking competition

Soutěže

Every two years the International Exlibris Centre of the Town of Sint-Niklaas organises an international competition. Bookmarks as well as other small prints may be submitted.

There is no general topic this time. Everyone living anywhere in the world and aged over 18 can submit his/her prints. Prints from woodcuts to digital prints and almost all types of fine graphic printmaking techniques are allowed. Three main Town of Sint-Niklaas Awards for three different types of techniques will be granted to honour the attention to printmaking technique quality. The Sint-Niklaas International Exlibris Centre will continue to support authentic bookmarks or exlibrises. A main Town of Sint-Niklaas Award and also some other desirable awards will be dedicated to the best, most striking owner marks made for someone’s books.

From now on the best small print without an expression about the ownership is awarded with a Town of Sint-Niklaas main Award.

Submissions accompanied by a clearly filled-out registration form need to arrive at the following address before the 1st of November 2012:

Internationaal Exlibriscentrum Stedelijke Musea Sint-Niklaas - Wedstrijd 2013
Zwijgershoek 14
B-9100 Sint-Niklaas België.

We cordially invite all the participants to attend the official announcement of the results of the competition and the opening of the 26th Printmaking Biennale 2013, on Saturday, April 06, 2013 (yet to be confirmed) in the museum site SteM Zwijgershoek 14 in Sint-Niklaas.
