What was the problem?
• NPG perceived as outdated• Lack of connection with today’s artists• Portraiture not perceived as “cool” or “hip”• Aimed to reach emerging & mid-career
artists• Needed to secure 2,000 entries for the
contest to be viable

What We Did• Media outreach• Media buy• Direct mail• “Portrait of an Artist”
