6th International Drawing Annual (INDA)
Deadline: December 31, 2010
Competitive Annual Publication of Works of Contemporary Drawing and Writing about Drawing
$1000 in cash prizes
The INDA is an ongoing complementary project to the newly launched International Painting Annual (INPA). The goal of the INDA is to support the recognition, documentation, and publication of excellent, current, and relevant works of drawing from around the world. As a carefully designed high-end book, the INDA enables Manifest to assemble a diverse array of works of drawing by international artists, without the limitation of physical availability, gallery space, or shipping logistics. With this, Manifest leverages its considerable experience in publication design specifically for works of art, with a high level of sensitivity to the artist's point of view. Like the painting annuals, the INDA is juried by a qualified ten-person panel of academic and professional advisers.
Postmark or online submission deadline for entry: December 31, 2010

In 2005 Manifest launched the International Drawing Annual project. In four completed volumes (the 5th is currently in production) the INDA has presented three hundred and three works by 166 artists from around the world, and distributed the books far and wide to collectors, patrons, libraries, museum bookstores, art students, professors, and artists. Thousands view the online supplemental resources provided with each publication. The project has gained a great deal of interest over the past five years, making the INDA a respected source for a consistent, balanced, and intriguing sampling of excellent contemporary drawing. The INPA parallels the Drawing Annual series, exploring and taking stock of this nearest kin to drawing, and bringing more excellent art by more artists to even more people than ever before. The INPA 1 is also currently in early stages of production.
Manifest's book and gallery projects have become highly competitive and prestigious events for artists to be involved with. And each new project brings different artists together, with new work, in new ways, and with always surprising results. Furthermore, Manifest's books are designed and printed with the utmost care and attention to design integrity, making them exquisite documents of the art contained within.
Both soft and hardcover versions of the INDA will be printed and available by Fall of 2011.
(Previous INDA books are available for viewing and purchase on the Manifest online bookstore and for purchase at Amazon.com).
