INTRODUCING

THE AMA ARTIST AWARD

ELEVATING EARLY TO MID-CAREER ARTISTS ONTO THE WORLD STAGE

The AMA Artist Award is a prestigious annual initiative designed to elevate early to mid-career North American artists onto the global stage. A platform for artists who have yet to hold a major international solo show, the Award offers an exceptional opportunity to showcase their work at two of Asia’s most influential contemporary art fairs: India Art Fair and Tokyo Gendai.

With over 40 years of experience in the contemporary art world, Angus Montgomery Arts (AMA) is a global leader in organising premier art fairs, including India Art Fair and Tokyo Gendai which welcome over 50,000 visitors annually. Drawing on this deep-rooted expertise and expansive network, AMA launches this new initiative to encourage cross-cultural exchange, strengthening ties between the North American art community and India Art Fair and Tokyo Gendai.

The Award provides a global stage for artists working across diverse mediums and disciplines, allowing them to gain notable visibility and to engage with new audiences of international collectors, patrons and art lovers. 

A distinguished curatorial committee composed of leading curators from institutions across North America and Asia carefully selects the awardee, ensuring artistic excellence and innovation. The chosen artist will then present their work at India Art Fair and Tokyo Gendai.

More than a prize, the AMA Artist Award helps to forge meaningful connections between artists and the global art world. By bridging artistic talent with influential networks, the AMA Artist Award serves as a catalyst for discovery, recognition, and sustained artistic growth.
