5th International 2009/2010 ARC Salon Competition Results
The Art Renewal Center is proud to present the award winners and finalists in our fifth International ARC Salon®: Competition. This year we had well over 1600 entries from 30 different countries.
Once again the quality of work submitted to this year's competition is living proof that the great traditions of representational painting, drawing and sculpture are alive and those who would seek guidance can find the support and tutelage necessary to master them. With so many quality entries, we found it necessary to add a semi-finalists tier to help narrow the field before the final choices were made and we will be listing the semi-finalists at the end of this Salon posting.
