Research, Nominating and Judging Process<\/strong><\/p>\n

Throughout the year, the Art Research Committee searches to identify the best exhibitions and installations across the globe.\u00a0 The basis for the research and selection of nominees is ongoing and thorough review of over 50 sources of art editorial and critique. More than 200 museums and 2,000 exhibitions are vetted during the process.<\/p>\n

In addition to the research-based nominations, GFAA accepts open calls from museums, biennials, fairs, galleries and other art organizations. Individual patrons may nominate their favorite exhibitions as well. Open Call Submissions<\/a> for the 2019 GFAA awards will take place through\u00a0 July 20.<\/p>\n

In the summer, the Nominating Committee convenes to review the list of all potential nominees, and deliberates to select a proposed slate for the judges.<\/p>\n

The Judges review the proposed slate, then make additions and deletions to create the official list of nominees.\u00a0 The 2019 Nominees will be announced in early October.\u00a0 A final round of judging and deliberation is done to select the winners- one in each award category.<\/p>\n

GFAA will announce the Nominees via international press release, and on the GFAA website, in October 2019. The winners are announced live at the award ceremony in spring 2019.<\/p>\n

Two final awards, Youniversal and YOU-2, are determined by online public voting and a twitter contest. All nominees are eligible to win these coveted awards. Voting will take place in the\u00a0 fall\/winter, for approximately two weeks.<\/p>\n
