UNIQLO, the Japanese global apparel retailer UT Grand Prix 2020 T-shirt design competition (UTGP 2020 + MoMA) seeks entries from around the world. The theme of this contest, now in its 15th year, is Draw Your World.
Inspired by New York’s renowned The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), UTGP 2020 returns to the competition’s founding ethos of celebrating T-shirts as blank canvases on which to make art accessible and enjoyable for all. UNIQLO is inviting several world-renowned artists approved by MoMA to serve on the judging panel.
The Grand Prize winner will receive PHP1,560,000, the largest purse yet for this contest, and an invitation to the awards ceremony at the Museum Store in MoMA. The Museum plans to display the winning designs in the Museum Store at MoMA. These designs will also be featured in UNIQLO’s Spring/Summer 2020 collection, which will be available in men’s and women’s lines from UNIQLO stores around the world and the UNIQLO.com online store.
