Gaia - 2026 (2nd Annual Juried Exhibition, Publication, Sales)

Gallerium proudly presents Gaia 2026, the 2nd Annual Juried International Exhibition, Publication, and Sales Opportunity — a celebration of our living planet and the creative voices that speak for it. Named after the ancient Greek goddess who embodies the Earth as a sentient, nurturing mother, Gaia represents the interconnectedness of all things—land, sea, air, flora, and fauna. This theme encourages artists to explore not only the natural splendor of the world but also the complex relationship between humanity and the Earth. Artists from all media and styles are invited to interpret Gaia through their own visual language, including themes such as land, sea, and sky; flora and fauna; environmental awareness; the human connection; myth, spirit, and symbolism; abstract and conceptual visions; transformation and renewal; earth and emotion; and future Earth.

Selected artists will receive an exclusive triple art opportunity: exhibition in an international online exhibition running from February 7 to April 7, 2026; publication in the official Gaia 2026 catalog with outstanding works potentially included in The Book of Arts; and global promotion with artwork featured on ARTSY, the largest online art marketplace. Additional awards include curated reviews, focused interviews, audience feedback, exhibition collection catalogue featuring all exhibited artists, and up to 10 Honorable Mention Artist Awards with personalized digital certificates.

The opportunity is open to all artists worldwide of any age, background, or career stage. All 2D & 3D mediums are accepted including painting, drawing, digital, mixed media, sculpture, installation, fiber art, photography, and more. All styles are welcome from abstract to figurative, contemporary to surrealism. Submission is free, with only selected artists required to pay a small fixed selection fee to participate. Artists must submit 1-6 images as work samples.
