8th International Drawing Annual (INDA 8)
A Competitive Annual Publication of Works of Contemporary Drawing
(and/or Writing About Drawing)

$1000 in cash awards

The INDA is an award-winning high-end publication launched as the flagship project for Manifest Press in 2005. The goal of the INDA is to support the recognition, documentation, and publication of excellent, diverse, and relevant works of current drawing from around the world. As a carefully designed and crafted book, the INDA series enables Manifest to assemble a wide array of works of drawing by international artists, without the limitation of physical availability, gallery space, or shipping logistics. The books are purposely free of commercial advertising, and market bias. With this, Manifest leverages its considerable experience in publication design specifically for works of art, with a high level of sensitivity to the artist's point of view. Like all competitive Manifest projects, the INDA is juried by a carefully selected and well-qualified ten-person panel of academic and professional advisers.

Note that this project is open to broad interpretations of just what qualifies as 'drawing'. The publication is open to any artist submitting original works of art or design created within the past three years (20010 - 2012). Professionals and students in ALL disciplines are encouraged to submit. Manifest is eager to receive works of drawing in a wide range of applications (technical, graphic, fine art, design, architectural, digital, illustration, etc.) with the only qualification being that artwork submitted is representative of 'drawing' of some form.
