Celeste Prize is organised by an Italian, non-profit cultural association, 'Associazione Culturale L'Albero Celeste', founded by Steven Music in 2005.

Connects artists 
with arts professionals such as gallery owners, critics, curators, collectors, museum and foundation directors, public arts administrators and the general public. It is a unique host, offering one of the most advanced and innovative web platforms from which to organise and promote one’s art work, make contacts, organise exhibitions, arrange publication of catalogues, and receive significant prize monies each year to fund personal art projects.

A dynamic presence
Celeste Prize enables artists and other art world professionals to share experiences, knowledge and creativity within a global art community. It is an active web network which acts as a motor for invaluable opportunities of contact among people with a common interest, who receive and make criticism, are part of ongoing global promotion via a number of activities such as online voting. Users benefit from global communications, word-of-web referrals, have their works archived and searched-for according to the most upto date methods of online research, as well as being alerted instantly of other artists or art professionals working with similar interests and content around the world.

Artists vote the awards
At the final exhibition in New York in December 2010, the finalist artists themselves will vote the 40,000 € awards.

This Prize is exciting as it puts the power to decide in the hands of artists, creating a new visual agenda for contemporary arts!
