For this international group exhibition, we invite artists to submit artworks featuring the color RED. Otherwise the subject matter is completely open. Artworks can be any medium/style, any size, and created in any year.

The exhibition will be live online Wednesday, February 14th, 2024 (in honor of Valentine's Day!) through Thursday, March 28th, 2024.

KBM Art Gallery is an ONLINE ONLY art gallery, so there will be no need to ship your work(s) to us. Our gallery regularly receives thousands of visits worldwide and our website is in the top 98% of all visited sites on its hosting platform. We have over 7.5K followers on Instagram and over 21K on X (Formerly Twitter) and we are constantly growing.

All artists will have the option to choose if they would like their work used on our social media pages in order to promote the exhibition/gallery. You do not have to feature your work on social media in order to be part of our exhibition. We do not remove these posts, even after the close of the exhibition. If we still receive inquires for the purchase of your artwork after the close of the show; we will promptly forward them to you.

Our gallery accepts and displays your artwork at any price set in your CaFE account. You, the artist, are entitled to 100% of the profits from the sale of said artwork, under the agreement to work directly with the buyer to negotiate payment/framing/shipping/etc. We do not sell your artwork directly through our website; we only direct buyers to you via email, social media, or other websites.

We do not require you to display your artwork in our gallery alone. All artists retain the right of ownership over their work, and can display and promote it at their own discretion. We simply ask if your artwork sells elsewhere to let us know so we can mark the work as SOLD for our online audience. 

Application Requirements

Please send at least 1 jpeg image and up to 20 jpeg images of up to 20 different artworks.

Artworks that do not meet the submission guidelines may be automatically disqualified, so please read carefully (and contact us if you have any questions):

For 2D works please crop the picture to be of the ARTWORK ONLY. DO NOT include anything in the background, including, but not limited to: a frame or matte, the easel, or a wall. Please use a photo-editing app, if necessary, to remove excess shadows/highlights/blurriness/etc. We highly recommend this for the most professional aesthetic possible.

For 3D works make sure the artwork is very well-lit, cropped to be in the center, and please completely remove the background and replace with ALL WHITE. We will not accept works that do not use a photo-editor to achieve this. If you have questions, please contact us prior to submitting.

Artworks can be created in any year.

There is no size limit. Anything you would be willing to ship to a potential buyer, we are willing to display.

DO NOT send artwork containing nudity. Even if you believe it is tasteful/artistic. As an online art gallery, we are proud to display to audiences of all ages. Therefore, we legally cannot display nudity of any kind; NO EXCEPTIONS.

DO NOT send artwork with racist, offensive or harassing themes.

DO NOT send erotic artwork.

Artworks do not have to be for sale.

Please make sure the details in your CaFE account are up-to-date and accurate.

Eligibility Criteria

Artworks must be original works by the submitting artist.

Once again, if you have any questions about these guidelines, our deadline, or anything in general; please contact us prior to submitting. We will do our best to promptly answer.
