Art Discovery Contest. 35 STEEM to be won.

 Art transcends all boundaries, including geographical.
 Let's show this together!
 I offer you fascinating art-geographical challenge that will broaden our understanding of the diversity of art.

 Any steemian can take part in this challenge. To participate, you need to publish a post about some iconic artist who comes from your country. It is desirable to write about not very famous artists, e.g. steemians from France, of course, can write about Monet, but it will be great if each participant of the contest tries to acquaint us with some local artist, who is not so widely known around the world. Although, strictly speaking, this is not a limitation, but a personal suggestion.

 As an example of this type of post you can read my previous post about the Russian artist Ivan Bilibin. No one is obliged to follow it in form or in structure, I give it simply as an example of thematic focus.

 I would like to extend my internal art geography with new names from your native places. It is a real pleasure for me, so 

 I will guarantee rewards:

 The best post will receive 15 STEEM.
 And 2 other selected posts will receive 10 STEEM each.

 So, the formal rules of the contest are as follows:

 — make a post containing «Art Discovery Contest»
 — publish in the post your story about artist who was/is from your native country. (Please don’t make post about yourself. )) I know there are a lot of excellent outstanding artists on Steemit, but this contest is for writing about other people, not about yourself :)
 — All participants can submit their posts from today to July 12, Wednesday, 11pm GMT. and the name of your country in the title, and #artdiscovery as one of the tags

 The results will be posted on July 15, Saturday.

 Please share this post to other art-fans :)
