Michael K. Owino to Receive the International Caravaggio Prize in MadridDanish-Tanzanian contemporary artist Michael K. Owino will be awarded the International Caravaggio Prize in Madrid, recognizing his work in visual storytelling and figurative contemporary art.
The International Caravaggio Prize is dedicated to artists whose work reflects strong artistic merit and a distinctive visual language. Inspired by the legacy of Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio, the prize recognizes artists who engage with light, narrative, and human presence in contemporary practice. Owino's work is centered on visual storytelling through mixed media, combining figurative elements with layered compositions that explore human connection, memory, and emotional structure. His practice moves between painting and sculptural thinking, with a focus on creating images that communicate without reliance on text. The award ceremony will take place at the historic Palacio Santona in Madrid, gathering international artists, curators, and collectors. While Owino will not be present at the ceremony due to personal circumstances, his work remains part of the official selection and recognition. In recent years, Owino has participated in multiple international exhibitions and projects, positioning his work within a broader contemporary context that bridges narrative and visual form. This recognition marks another step in his ongoing exploration of contemporary figurative expression and international presence.http://www.michaelowino.com End
