You will have to upload at least one image (photo or sketch) of the artwork / project. Also a portrait photo of each artist participating in the project must be submitted.

        1. Dear Luis,

          Seeing as Mladiinfo is not the organizer of this contest, I would advise you to contact the organizers directly at

          Telephone:(495) 699-59-67
          e-mail: youngart@youngart.ru
          Address: Vorotnikovsky Pereulok 11 st 3, Moscow, 127006

          and ask your questions, about what you should write in that section. I don't remember that it said anywhere that you must submit your website. But to be on the safe side please contact the organizers, but note that you have to hurry because the application deadline is until midnight tonight Moscow time, which is in a few hours.

          Kind regards
          Elena
