Floral – International Online Group Exhibition 2026
No. 35 Gallery is pleased to announce an international Open Call for our upcoming Floral Online Group Exhibition 2026.
This exhibition celebrates the beauty, symbolism, diversity, and emotional resonance of flowers in contemporary art. Artists are invited to explore floral subjects through their own unique artistic vision, whether representational, abstract, conceptual, or experimental.
We welcome submissions from emerging and established artists worldwide working across all visual art mediums, including painting, photography, sculpture, mixed media, digital art, textile art, printmaking, drawing, and other contemporary practices.
Flowers have long served as symbols of growth, transformation, memory, fragility, resilience, and beauty. Through this exhibition, we seek to showcase diverse interpretations of floral themes and create a vibrant international dialogue through art.
Selected artists will have the opportunity to exhibit their work as part of an international online exhibition presented by No. 35 Gallery and promoted to a global audience of artists, collectors, curators, and art enthusiasts.
