About the KiptonART Rising Program:

Launched on December 6, 2008 during Art Basel Miami at the Setai South Beach, KiptonART Rising is an annual program where 6 up-and-coming artists are selected by our Curatorial Team. Over the 12 months following the announcement of the winning artists, KiptonART devotes time, energy and resources to enhance visibility and facilitate introductions into the art world.  Since the November 2009 announcement, the 6 KiptonART Rising 2010 Winners, were given multiple opportunities of exposure including the debut event at SAKS Fifth Avenue, New York on November 2, 2009, an exclusive opportunity at Longchamp in Soho, New York on November 6, 2009 and a solo exhibition in May 2010 at James Salomon Gallery in Chelsea, New York.
