Thom Bierdz, self-taught artist and actor (Phillip Chancellor III on The Young and the Restless), co-founded this opportunity to bring new artists from around the globe into contact with American galleries. All art images are seen and judged by authentic galleries, sometimes resulting in exhibitions. Esteemed galleries vote on the works they like, and get to discover new talent. Artists get seen by galleries (often for their first time) and 300 artists win awards. For more information, visit http://www.americanartawards.com/
