international painting & sculpture competition

The Figurativas 2025 International Painting and Sculpture Competition opens its doors to all representational artists and invites them to participate in this new edition of this renowned contest organized by the Foundation for Arts and Artists and the MEAM Museum. Over the years, this competition has established itself as a benchmark for those who, through realism, seek to express the essence and complexity of the human condition.

Aimed at both established and emerging artists, Figurativas 2025 focuses on technical excellence and innovation in painting, sculpture, and drawing. Selected artists will have the opportunity to exhibit their works at the MEAM, one of the most prominent spaces for contemporary realist art, and to receive more than €80.000 in awards that recognize their talent and dedication.
