The Cricket Art Prize has been postponed for 2013 - please refer to their website for more information.

 

Our history and sense of identity are linked to cricket and our social interactions are often complimented with some form of the game, at the beach, in the park, in the backyard or on the cricket field.

The arts reflect the emotions, beliefs and prejudices that influence the way we think, behave and feel and cricket in all its forms, has inspired artists & writers – past and present, most of which romanticise, celebrate and pay tribute to the game. 

The organisers invite artists and writers from test playing nations to submit a painting or composition that depicts life in and around the game and sport of cricket, in settings of backyard, street, park, beach, club cricket or social-cricket.

Painters and Poets are invited to use a global sport and national pastime as the vehicle to unsettle preconceptions, generate new ideas and challenge our contemporary culture.
