Call Description

Novum Artis is a new bi-monthly publication dedicated to helping new and emerging artists get their art exposed to the world. Readers will discover proven methods for increasing their exposure and profile from established experts, as well as their peers.

Each issue will have a call for artists to submit their art for juried consideration. Selected artists will receive a two page gatefold presentation in the next issue, featuring their headshot, biography, artist statement (if submitted), and social media/contact information, along with up to 3 of their submitted artworks based on available space. All art will be published in full color.

Submission to our artist calls is free. Selected artists will be asked to pay a US$100 inclusion fee for publication.

For maximum distribution, Novum Artis is distributed online for free. Print copies may be ordered on-demand indefinitely from our website. Artists may order issues at cost.

NOTIFICATION

All artists will be notified of our jury's opinion via email within 7 business days after the submission deadline.

Submitting to this call is FREE. There is no cost to submit for consideration. If you are selected for our next issue, you will be asked to pay a US$100 inclusion fee for publication.

You will be asked to submit the following information:

If this information is already entered into your CaFE portfolio artworks, it's super easy to submit, so make sure that info is in there. All submitted art must, of course, be your original work. Any work that can be photographed can be submitted, though photos should only show the artwork itself, no frames, easels, etc.

Eligibility Criteria

• Our art calls are open to any artist, professional or amateur, worldwide.
• You may submit up to 20 artworks for consideration. Consistency of quality is a major factor for consideration. Subject matter or theme is open, we want to see your creativity. We prefer artworks created within the last 5 years.
• You may submit 2- or 3-dimensional work that was done in any medium, provided it can be clearly photographed.
• You may submit any size images for your artwork, but high resolution print quality is preferred. If your artwork is selected and it is not high enough resolution for print (maximum 2400x3000 at 300dpi), you may be asked to provide a higher resolution file.
• Photos should not show anything but the artwork itself. In the case of sculptures, the surface of the supporting pedestal may be shown.
• All artwork submitted must be your original artwork, created without instructor supervision. You must own the rights to your artwork.
• If an entry is found to be a copy or derivative of any other copyrighted work, the artist will be banned from future calls.
• We do not accept artwork that, in our jury's opinion, contains violence, hatred directed toward any group of people, pornography, inappropriate and/or offensive content. If you feel that one of your submitted artworks is controversial, please include an explanation in the Description area of the artwork's Portfolio entry. This will be decided upon by our jury and the decision is final.
