Then there is this -  The Aperture Prize.


one of wall space's represented artists, Cynthia Greig was one of the four runner's up  in last year's competition.

In choosing the first-prize winner and runners-up, we are looking for work that is fresh and that hasn’t been widely seen in major publications or exhibition venues. 
First prize is $2,500. The first-prize winner and runners-up are featured on Aperture’s website for approximately one year.
