ABOUT:         The ARC Salon competition was established in 2004 to highlight and support the growing number of artists around the world, who use skill based techniques in the visual arts and the universal language of realism. It has since come to provide a philosophical framework and platform for the resurgent realism movement. To date, the ARC Salon Competition has received nearly 21,000 entries, presented more than $2 million in prizes, scholarships and grants, and helped boost and bring recognition to artists such as Max Ginsburg, Jeremy Lipking, Kamille Corry, Julio Reyes, among many others.
