The DESTE Prize was established in 1999 and is awarded biennially to a Greek or Cypriot artist living in Greece or abroad. The prize aims to showcase an emerging generation of artists and is integral to the foundation's policy of supporting and promoting contemporary art.

The six shortlisted artists for the DESTE Prize 2013 -Marianna Christofides, Elias Papaeliakis, Michail Pirgelis, Kostas Sahpazis, Maria Theodorakis, Alexandros Tzannis- will present work in an exhibition hosted by the Museum of Cycladic Art, which is scheduled to run from 24th April through to 30th September, 2013.
