ASAI invites its members—professional and student illustrators from around the globe—to take part in its annual Architecture in Perspective (AIP) Competition—an annual juried competition that recognizes the world’s best architectural illustrations. Submitted artworks may be created in any 2D medium and may include drawings, paintings, sketches, renderings, and digital imagery.
The Competition’s top award—the Hugh Ferriss Memorial Prize—is considered to be one of the highest professional honors in architectural illustration.
Selected artists will be announced on the website and awards will be presented during the Conference. All award-winning entries and honorable mentions will be published online and in a commemorative AIP Catalog.
Each year, to challenge our members to explore the evolution of the profession and the art form, we designate a Special Theme. The theme this year is:
“ARTficial Intelligence”
Illustrators are free to interpret this theme in any way they choose—and submissions may or may not take advantage of AI in their creation. But questions arise. Does AI require human intervention before ART can be created? Is all ART artificial? (Both words have the same Latin root, after all) Do you have a strong premonition about the world that AI is leading us into—professionally or generally?
