Exhibit and publish your art inspired by plants of our planet and win cash prizes

ABOUT

Gallerium proudly presents Plantarium - 2022. 

The subject of this dual art call is plants and our deep roots and relationship with trees, leaves, flowers, and green grass on the planet earth.

The planet will cease to exist without plants, and we enormously rely on the plant world and use them in diverse ways, from food and medicine to clothing, building, and fuel.

These days, several doctors prescribe a barefoot walk in nature, looking at plants, smelling flowers, and touching trees' skin as one of the best methods for maintaining and enhancing physical and mental health. 

Plantarium 2022 encourages artists to share their visual story of the plant world and create a unique botanical expression with their brilliant art of plants, herbs and vegetables, forests, trees, grass, flowers, and extensive usage. 

All real and imaginary interpretations of the subject in abstract or figurative style are welcome.

The selected artworks will be published in The Book of Arts: Plantarium series and in Plantarium 2022 international online group exhibition by Gallerium.

Furthermore, 3 artists with the highest rank will be selected as public choice winners and win USD 1000 cash prize.

This dual opportunity is open to all artists; working in any art medium worldwide. 

Submission is free of charge, and a small fixed selection fee applies to selected artists only.
