 This exhibition is a collaborative partnership between the Rollins Museum of Art and the UCF Art Gallery at the University of Central Florida that celebrates and supports emerging professional artists working in Florida. Juried by an external panel of professionals from various areas of the art world, this edition of the exhibition features a group of artists with diverse practices shown at both venues, creating opportunities for engagement with two of the area’s major academic constituencies and their surrounding communities. The selection includes a variety of media, themes, scales, and approaches, showing a wide breadth of perspectives and experiences. 

The winning artist of Pathways 2024: The Carlos Malamud Prize will receive a $10,000 cash prize, a solo exhibition at the UCF Art Gallery in the fall of 2025, a consulting session with a financial advisor to discuss the financial aspects of a sustainable art practice, and will participate as a juror for the following edition of the exhibition. The winner will also receive additional professional development and support. This consistent engagement over time makes Pathways unique and transformative among other art competitions. It hopes to nurture emerging artists and provide a pathway to success, which coincides with the core missions of both presenting institutions.  

This year’s finalists are Patricia L. Cooke, Samuel Aye-Gboyin, Tenee’ Hart, Fernando Ramos, Diego Alejandro Waisman, and Clio Yang. The finalists were selected by an independent panel of jurors: Ginger Gregg Duggan, the founding partner of c2 – curatorsquared which develops exhibitions of international, cross-media contemporary art and design that explore current cultural issues; Dennis Scholl, a visual artist, contemporary art collector, and award-winning documentary filmmaker focusing on arts and culture; and Eugene Ofori Agyei, the Ghana-born, currently New York-based artist and winner of the Pathways 2022: Carlos Malamud Prize.

The presenting sponsor of the exhibition is the Pabst-Steinmetz Foundation. The funding for the prize is generously provided by Mr. Carlos Malamud of Miami, FL.
