SECA 아트 어워드 SECA Art Award

The purpose of the SECA Art Award is to provide recognition to artists of exceptional promise who are working independently and at a high level of artistic maturity, but whose work has not been accorded substantial recognition.

Since 1967 SECA has honored 62 Bay Area artists with the biennial award, which includes an exhibition at SFMOMA, an accompanying catalogue, and a cash prize. Recipients are chosen during a 10-month process involving the local arts community, artists, SECA members, and museum staff. The final selection is made by SFMOMA’s curators of painting and sculpture.

Funding for the exhibition and catalogue is provided by SECA and SFMOMA; the cash prize accompanying the award was initiated in 1984 through the Robert Huston Fund, which is named in memory of a former SECA member and dedicated supporter of young Bay Area artists.
