Within art contests overall, and especially in the Figurative Art, we had many years without filling one of the gaps that we believed lacked our artistic society, a figurative competition in portrait mode.

We all know the difficulty of organizing a competition with quality, international, clean, transparent and honest. And most of the difficulty of finding a sponsor or sponsors who believe in it and support it. We believe that we have found it and so we present the first contest of figurative art in portrait mode: ModPortrait 2013.

Born with great support, The Foundation of the Arts and Artists and MEAM and organized by Gallery Artelibre, a virtual gallery with more than 15 years promoting the art and especially the figurative and realistic art.

The union of these entities and the people who run them, lovers of figuration and realism, has made occupy the vacant position was in portrait mode and a quality event hopefully with the support of all emerge last in time.
