Created in 2009 by Michèle Robine, OPLINEPRIZE, the first public prize for digital contemporary art, is preparing its 18th edition, dedicated to artificial intelligence.
Digital projects Le OPLINEPRIZE International announces its 18th edition and confirms its place as the first contemporary art prize dedicated to digital practices and online art. Under the theme “AI: Generative-Generation,” this edition explores the transformations of creation in the age of artificial intelligence: generative works, human-machine hybridizations, speculative fictions, and new visual narratives. Created in 2009 by Michèle Robine, the prize brings together 18 international curators and critics, each of whom selects an artist from emerging and established scenes. True to its participatory DNA, OPLINEPRIZE entrusts the public with choosing the winner of the Public Prize through an online vote open from May 1 to 31, 2026 on the official website. This format, pioneering in the field of digital art, creates a direct link between artists and international audiences. The awards ceremony takes place on June 6, 2026, in Paris in the prestigious amphithéâtre Richelieu at the Sorbonne, as part of Nuit Blanche, a major event for contemporary creation. Three distinctions will be awarded: a Public Prize (online vote), a Curators’ Prize, and a New Media Jury Prize chaired by artist Yann Toma.
