Selection process
The judges will initially review all entries individually and make their own choices for the exhibition. These works, reviewed digitally are regarded as pre-selected.
The judges will then meet to discuss all pre-selected entries. This is also a digital process through which the judges will make final selection for the exhibition.
There is no in-person process for exhibition selection. The selection of prizewinners however only happens after the exhibition has been hung.

To qualify for the Young Landscape Artist award, the artist or all artists in the collective or collaboration must be under 25 years on 1 November 2023.
Entry Fees

Free entry
Free entry is available for artists living in Scotland in a household where anyone is receiving any form of income support or universal credit. The final image uploaded by the artist should provide documentary evidence of such support.
Charities that wish to submit free entries on behalf of artists supported by their organization may do so by submitting the charity's contact information and registered charity number. The charity number replaces the documentary evidence required for individuals seeking free entry.
A separate entry form will be required for each artist represented by the charity. The charity will enter on the application form a ficticious email address for each artist they represent, that will take the form of: firstnamelastname@oess.uk. This will be used purely for identification purposes, it is not a functional email. The charity's own email address and phone numbers will be used if ithe Scottish Arts Trust need to contact the artist.
Medium
Submissions of work are invited from creative practitioners working in any medium in 2D and 3D formats, film and animation, installations etc. Examples include, but are not limited to, painting, drawing, printmaking, sculpture, animation, textiles, jewellery, photography, installation, video, performance, audio/sound, multi-media and virtual reality landscapes – and more.
Under 'Artwork Description', artists should indicate the medium of the work and where relevant should outline the creative processes used.
Restrictions
The 'Artwork Description' should be restricted to information about medium and creation process for the work. It should not include information on content or who was involved in its creation.
Please contact the coordinator Sara Cameron McBean by 21 May with any questions. sara@scottishartstrust.org . After 21 May high demand means we cannot guarantee a response before entries close.
Previous exhibition
Works that have been previously exhibited in a major public or leading commercial gallery in Scotland should not be entered. All other exhibitions within Scotland and in major galleries outside Scotland are accepted.
Work may also be submitted that has been previously released through electronic/social media/YouTube/Vimeo or through a website.
Pricing
Works may be for sale or not for sale.
The OESS entry form by default asks you to enter a value that includes the gallery commission. We were unable to change this question so please ignore it. Enter the value you expect before commission. We will come back to all selected artists to check the sale price of their work.
Artists submitting work from overseas will not be permitted to sell their work through the gallery.
For insurance purposes all works, including those that are not for sale, must have a value assigned. Artists selected for the exhibition will be asked to supply this value.
Sale of work online will be managed through the Scottish Arts Trust website. www.scottishartstrust.org
Communications
Most communication will be by email or via the online login process. Applicants will be contacted directly by phone or email by a member of the Scottish Arts Trust team to inform them of their selection for the exhibition. Artists will also be able to login to OESS to see if they have been selected. Artists whom the Scottish Arts Trust team are unable to contact directly may have their work withdrawn from the exhibition.
Selection
The Judges will select the works for the exhibition. The Judges will consider all correctly completed submissions. The decision of the Judges on all matters is final and no correspondence will be entered into.
Selection of certain works may be made with conditions and suggestions by the curatorial committee and may require a site visit and/or further discussion. If this is the case, the Scottish Arts Trust will contact the artist directly.
Insurance
The City Art Centre will insure work while it is on City of Edinburgh Council premises for the amount agreed. Artists selected for the exhibition will be asked to provide the value of their work and must provide this information three weeks before the work enters the gallery building. The City Art Centre reserves the right to query an insurance value if it seems inappropriate.
The City Art Centre undertakes a condition check of every work upon delivery. Artists will be notified immediately in the event of any damage to the loan. Dusting and light cleaning will be carried out as appropriate, but repairs, restoration or extensive cleaning of the loan will not be undertaken without the prior written permission of the lender. Works are checked again at the end of the exhibition.
Presentation, framing, plinths
The gallery will provide screening equipment for standard film, videos and animation that do not form part of an installation piece.
Promotion
All works selected for exhibition may be photographed by the Scottish Arts Trust and used by the Trust and the City Art Centre to promote the work of the Trust and the Scottish Landscape Awards. Works featured in the exhibition may be photographed by the public for non-commercial purposes.
Scottish Landscape Awards Show: Artist Films
All artists selected for the exhibition will be invited to submit a short film (up to 2 mins) about their work and practice as an artist. All the films will be combined and released on YouTube. Paticipation in the Artist Films project is optional. Past experience shows that the Artist Films series by the Scottish Arts Trust reaches large audiences within and outside the UK.
Delivery and Collection
Artists are responsible for the delivery and collection of their work at the City Art Centre, Edinburgh on the agreed dates. All packaging materials must be removed after delivery (no gallery storage is available for this) and brought back at collection.
Works cannot be removed until the end of the exhibition. Access to collect works cannot be arranged outside the prescribed dates. Any costs incurred in storing uncollected work will be passed on to the artist. The Scottish Arts Trust and the City Art Centre have the right to dispose of work that is not collected or when storage costs are not met. Artists are responsible for arranging the collection of their own work if delivered by a carrier. Artists applying from overseas, must consider how they will get their work to and from the exhibition at the required times.
Artists sending work from outside the UK are responsible for any customs and duty charges, declarations and other related documentation for the artwork both entering and leaving the UK, and for ensuring that work is received at the gallery by the specified time.
