Miradas International Art Contest 2020

The Jorge Alió Foundation chooses culture and art as a way of raising society’s awareness and stimulating its support for the prevention of blindness.

With the goal of transmitting this important message, the National Miradas art contest is created in 1998. Very soon it attracted the attention of other countries, starting in America with the Miradas of Latin America in (2004 ) and now promoting to worldwide projection with Miradas international in 2016.

Now, countries from all over the world participate in it aiming for the same message.

Since (2005), the art of Miradas illustrate the cover page of the Journal of Refractive Surgery  and also it has been displayed as the cover page of several Ophthalmology books, Congress announcements and other scientific activities that reflect this fusion between Vision and Art.

In this first edition of Miradas International, 22 countries from worldwide are participating, which, through their own organization create their own contest to select the artworks that will participate in the international event. The selection of the paintings and the Miradas International Award is performed by the juries of these different countries, which will vote each one independently to select the winning artwork.

The award of the I International Miradas Art Contest will be this year $4,000 and it is sponsored by Schwind Eye Tech Solutions.
