Bad painting

prize 2021

The annual Bad Painting Prize originated at Wimbledon College of Arts over a decade ago and has been a highlight of its calendar. On the one hand it is a high-jinx live auction of crass and subjectively likeable works. On the other it is a critical platform, questioning the role of taste in the commodification of the art object.

You decide.
