Call for Photographers - Fall Exhibition
Theme: Cycle(s)
Submission deadline: Friday 31 July 2026 at 23:59 CET
We are currently seeking two photographers to be featured in our fall exhibition. Selected artists will have their printing and exhibition promotion fully covered. Artists are simply responsible for making their own arrangements should they decide to attend and enjoy the opening night.
For this open call, photographers are free to develop on the theme: Cycle(s). We are very honoured to have Carolyn Mendelsohn as our guest jury.
We are looking for photographers who offer personal and compelling ways of seeing. We seek work that moves beyond familiar aesthetics and well-worn visual trends, without the need to conform to a specific tone, genre, or model. What matters most is a distinct perspective - thoughtful and organic - capable of subtly shifting how we engage with images and ideas we may think we already know.
Please note that we reserve the right to present a solo exhibition if a submission demonstrates particularly strong artistic merit and a unique, singular vision.
To apply, please submit a portfolio of 10 to 25 photographs in a PDF file, as well as a biography and an artist statement. All genres are welcome. Please note that a contribution of 25 EUR is required to support the administration of the open call.
Exhibition date: 6 November - 22 December 2026
Venue: Millepiani in Rome
Monday - Friday, 9am - 7pm, free admission
Opening reception: 6 November 2026, 6pm
