Call Description

Exhibit and celebrate your artistic vision inspired by vacations and holidays!

Exhibizone proudly presents Vacations 2024, a unique smart online international group exhibition, promotion, and sales opportunity to explore and celebrate holidays through art.

Vacations are a time for relaxation, adventure, discovery, and the creation of unforgettable memories. They are moments when we escape the ordinary and immerse ourselves in new experiences, landscapes, and cultures. This year's theme, "Vacations," offers a vast canvas for your imagination to explore and convey the essence of these treasured times.

What does 'Vacation' mean to you? Perhaps it’s the serene beauty of a sun-drenched beach, the bustling energy of a vibrant cityscape, the tranquility of a secluded mountain retreat, or the colorful tapestry of a foreign market. Vacations can be about adventure sports, cultural festivals, family gatherings, solo travels, or even a quiet staycation in the comfort of your own home. 

Whether it’s the escape, the journey, or the wanderlust, we encourage you to capture these moments and translate them into your unique artistic language, sharing your vision and inspiring others with your creativity.

Vacations 2024 offers endless opportunities to capture the essence of your travels, self-reflections, and experiences, including but not limited to:

Landscapes and Seascapes: From the vast, open oceans to the majestic peaks of mountain ranges, illustrate the natural beauty that makes vacations so enchanting.

Urban Exploration: Capture the essence of city life, whether it’s the architectural marvels, bustling streets, or hidden alleyways that come alive with local culture.

Cultural Highlights: Festivals, traditional dances, markets (farmers, artisans, etc.), and historical sites that represent the cultural richness encountered during travels.

Leisure Activities: Depict scenes of relaxation and fun—be it sunbathing on a sandy shore, hiking through a forest, or enjoying a picnic in a park.

Family and Friends: Moments of joy and connection shared with loved ones during holiday trips.

Inner Journeys: Explore themes of self-reflection, personal growth, and the inner transformations that occur during vacations.

Abstract Interpretations: Use shapes, colors, and textures to evoke the feelings and emotions associated with vacations.

We welcome and encourage submissions in various 2D and 3D art mediums. Each artwork will be a testament to the diverse ways vacations can be experienced and appreciated.

Submission is free and a small fixed selection fee will be applied to all selected artists.
