Biggest Art Award of the Year - Emerging Artist of the Year Award 2013

Bestcollegeart.com is very happy to announce the winner of the biggest art award of the year - ‘The Emerging Artist of the Year 2013 Award' presented by Glenfiddich. On 12th April, 2013, Bestcollegeart.com brought to the forefront 5 amazing talents of India. The winner of the award is the talent from South India – YUVAN BOTHYSATHUVAR.

The competition was very tough between all the five finalists – Ankush Safaya, Poorvesh Patel, Sumantra Mukherjee, Yuvan Bothysathuvar and Shivanand Shyagoti, but our respected jury took a very wise, unbiased and experienced decision making Yuvan the winner. The jury comprised of Mr Kapil Chopra, Andy Fairgrieve, Peter Nagy, Rajshree Pathy, Art Collector, Rajiv Bhatia, Jiten Thukral & Sumir Tagra, Swapan Seth, Nitin Bhayana and Veer Munshi.

We got amazing reviews about the award announcement function at The Oberoi, Gurgaon, the show and the cocktail evening and some amazing media coverage. Many artworks got sold during the event along with the trailing follow-ups.

Yuvan has now got the exclusive chance of going to Scotland for a 3 months residency, all paid for by Glenfiddich. He is also awarded Rs 10 lacs and is entitled for a solo show in Nature Morte on his return.
