SUBMISSIONS ARE NOW OPEN
The online exhibition will run from December 1st 2026 until January 31st 2027.
The results will be announced via our Instagram feed towards the end of November 2026.
Details
We invite submissions from painters of all backgrounds who wish to present their work to an international audience. Our goal is to connect the diverse trajectories of artists currently defining the momentum of painting today. This edition will culminate in a curated online group exhibition featured on our website and widely spotlighted across our Instagram platform.
Paintingsince2000 began its journey in June 2021 as an Instagram page celebrating painting produced since the millennium. Since then, it has organically evolved into a central hub for discovering and sharing works from both emerging and established artists.
