The international jury of the Prix de Rome has selected four visual artists for the shortlist of the Prix de Rome 2019. The nominees are: Sander Breure & Witte van Hulzen, Esiri Erheriene-Essi, Femke Herregraven and Rory Pilgrim.

The Prix de Rome is the oldest and most generous Dutch award for visual artists below the age of 40. The purpose of the award is to identify talented visual artists and to encourage them to develop and increase their visibility. The Mondriaan Fund has been responsible for the award from 2012 on. For Prix de Rome 2019 the Mondriaan Fund will collaborate with Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam. The publication will be published by Jap Sam Books.

Our publication Evidence by artist Jan Dietvorst and Roy Villevoye is selected for the Prix Bob Calle 2019 du livre d'artiste. The publication is co-published by Argos Centre for Art & Media in Brussels, with text contributions by Andrea Cinel and An van. Dienderen. The Prix Bob Calle 2019 will be awarded on Wednesday 13 March at The Beaux-Arts de Paris.
