28th Annual NO DEAD ARTISTS

FERRARA SHOWMAN GALLERY is accepting artist submissions for the 28th Annual NO DEAD ARTISTS International Juried Exhibition. NO DEAD ARTISTS has been a springboard for numerous artists leading to national press coverage and recognition, art fair presentations, gallery representation, and acquisitions by museums and other prominent collections. The exhibition’s name is derived from the old adage that artists never achieve success until they are dead. NO DEAD ARTISTS turns that notion on its head and gives emerging artists their first break in the art world. 

The call is an INTERNATIONAL OPEN CALL FOR ARTISTS, open to living artists of all ages, emerging and established, working throughout the world. All mediums are accepted. 

Each year the gallery invites a panel of renowned arts professionals and collectors to select the NO DEAD ARTISTS finalists. Finalists will be featured in the group exhibition in September 2024. One selected finalist will be awarded a solo exhibition in 2025.
