Montevideo Tennis Club Launches National Art Contest for 2026 Davis Cup
The Círculo de Tenis de Montevideo is throwing open its doors to the country’s creative community. Ahead of the Copa Davis Uruguay 2026 tie, the institution of national tennis has issued an open call for visual artists and designers, organizing a national art competition entitled “Sacá tu Arte y dejá tu huella en la Copa Davis.”
Organizers intend the cultural initiative to extend the tournament’s impact well beyond the competitive clay or hard courts.
Anonymous Submissions and Strict File Requirements
Impartiality is paramount. Submissions for the contest are evaluated strictly under pseudonyms to ensure unbiased judging by the organizing committee.
Interested participants must submit their artwork via email to [email protected]. Entries must include two distinct, independent files attached to a single message.
The first file is designated exclusively for the artwork. It must contain only the submitted visual piece and the chosen pseudonym. Regulations explicitly prohibit any names, signatures, personal identifiers, or metadata that could reveal the artist’s identity. Creators must title this file using the exact format OBRA_SEUDÓNIMO.
Detailed Personal Data and Concept Documentation
The second file requires a PDF document containing the participant’s complete personal information. This must detail the pseudonym used, full legal name, national identity document number, date of birth, mobile telephone number, and electronic mail address.
Additionally, applicants must include a brief biographical summary, a written rationale explaining the artistic concept of the work, and a formal declaration confirming acceptance of the contest rules. The mandatory naming convention for this supporting document is DATOS_SEUDÓNIMO.
Email Subject Lines and Sequestration of Records
Applicants must ensure the subject line of their submission email clearly indicates CONCURSO SACÁ TU ARTE followed by their chosen pseudonym.
Event administrators manage both files securely to preserve participant anonymity throughout the evaluation phase. The appointed jury reviews exclusively the artwork file tagged with the pseudonym, while personal data records remain safely sequestered until after the panel reaches a final verdict.
Strict Deadlines and the September Winner Announcement
Time is short. The strict deadline for all submissions is Thursday, August 22, 2026, inclusive. Organizers confirm that no late entries will be accepted under any circumstances.
Following the evaluation period, the competition organizers will publicly announce the winning selections and award recipients on Monday, September 3, 2026.
