Call for Photographers - July Exhibition

Submission deadline: Sunday 17 May 2026 at 23:59 CET

We are currently seeking two photographers to be featured in our July exhibition, which will run for five weeks. 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 first open call, we have chosen not to impose a theme. We invite you to come as you are and allow us to enter your visual universe. We are interested in 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.

Selection is based on curatorial coherence and artistic strength. 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. Your submission may consist of one or two cohesive series, or a carefully curated selection that reflects your broader body of work. All genres are welcome. Please note that a contribution of 25 EUR is required to support the administration of the open call.

Exhibition date: 26 June - 31 July 2026

Venue: Millepiani Gallery in Rome

Monday - Friday, 9am - 7pm, free admission

Opening reception: 26 June 2026, 6pm
