CALL FOR ARTWORKS
International Digital Art (IDA) will host the online exhibition of the
International Digital Art Awards (IDAA) and present hard copy exhibitions.
Why

1. The creative potency of the International Digital Art Awards has,
in part, to do with the important artists entering the prestigious competition.
The IDAA presents an alternative, planet-wide forum for digital artists
and presents a dedicated program within a fine art context, rather than
a prescribed industrial and/or academic platform of events.
2.
The 2004 IDAA has a large web presence that grows daily. Online the
numbers are impressive with several million people visiting the website
annually. The IDAA has a supporting membership base of more than 75,000
persons consisting of artists, photographers, gallery/museum directors,
academics and media specialists
3.
The IDAA offers artists an opportunity to exhibit in major art galleries
and museums across Australia and internationally. The IDAA includes
both a public call and invitation program. The IDAA includes a printed
publication in Desktop magaizne which participating artists receive
free.
4.

• present the best artists who will be judged by a leading panel
of their peers
