Call Description

Showcase life  through art, inspire, evoke, and transcend all boundaries.

Gallerium delightfully presents I-SEE-U 2023-24, a dual exhibition and publication opportunity to celebrate the transformative power of visual art through an open theme exhibition. 

Vincent van Gogh believed that art is to console those broken by life, and it is a valid statement for both artists and viewers. 

Visual arts uniquely communicate complex ideas, emotions, and experiences in ways that words alone cannot capture. It is a universal language, capable of inspiring, evoking, transcending all boundaries and embarking on a journey of discovery. They say the true artist sees the surface and the depth of the human experience since the artist captures the essence of existence, the unseen within, revealing who we are. 

For I-SEE-U 2023-24, we encourage artists to share art's profound impact on our lives by showcasing the life and its experiences through their artistic lens that captivates our senses and imaginations. Transfer your vision into tangible artworks and show the viewers life through artistic eyes, offer a fresh perspective and enable them to connect with your art and themselves on a profound level. 

This connection transcends geographical, language, religious, and cultural boundaries and reminds us that art can unite us all and bridge the gaps despite our differences. 

Together, let's celebrate visual art's inspiring and transcendent nature, witness the magic you create, and touch the souls of those who encounter it.

All abstract and representational artworks in any 2D and 3D art medium are accepted. 

Selected artworks will be published in The Book of Arts: I-SEE-U publication and showcased in I-SEE-U international online group exhibition by Gallerium.

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