“Piece Of Me” deadline in 55 hours!

February Group Show "Piece Of Me"!

Self-expression and personal narratives are the topics of our February group show. Many artists’ art practice has always been centered around creating a multifaceted portrait of the human experience, which emphasizes both the similarities and differences between all of us, therefore we encourage artists to contribute to an open and inclusive dialogue about self-expression, narrative, and identity, making this group show “Piece of Me” not only a celebration of creativity, but also a celebration of humanity. In this show, artists are free to express themselves authentically, and the theme is meant to inspire submissions that are intimate and personal adding to the diversity and richness of the show. Artists can choose any medium or style that they feel best represents their story and perspective.

We welcome artworks from all mediums of visual art, except AI-created art, and video/film.

★ Digital entries must be received by January 29th, 2024 before 11:59 pm Eastern Standard Time.

★ Notification of acceptance will be sent by email by January 31st.

★ The show will premiere on February 1st and end on February 29th.

AWARDS:

All Artists participating in the online group show will be featured on our Website and Virtual Gallery platform. All artists will be awarded an HMVC Gallery New York certificate of participation. A video clip of "Piece of Me” featuring all participating artists’ artworks will be screened on a jumbotron billboard in New York City’s famous Times Square later in February.

Elevate Your Artist Bio & Statement With

HMVC’s Gold Standard

We are very happy to announce that we have implemented a new service called "Artist's Writing Aid."

We are well aware of how artists struggle with writing Artist Bios and Statements because we review them every month. Many artists do not realize that their Artist Bio and Statement are a gateway to the art world and unfortunately many end up missing out on good opportunities because of poor writing.

So why not let us help you tell your story in a way that resonates, captivates, and elevates your artistic identity.

With our "Artist's Writing Aid", we provide you with a white glove mentor service by:

★ Uncover Your Unique Voice: We’ll conduct interviews and research to understand your artistic journey, inspirations, and aspirations.

★ Craft a Compelling Narrative: We will transform your experiences and thoughts into engaging narratives that captivate your audience.

★ Tailor for Your Audience: We consider your target audience—whether it’s galleries, collectors, or the general public—ensuring your artist bio and statement resonate with them.

★ Edit and Refine: We provide multiple rounds of revisions to ensure your bio and statement are perfect in every way.

Together, we’ll take your artistry to new heights!

HMVC Gallery New York is now offering you the opportunity to have your own solo show on our ArtPlacer virtual platform for a month. Because the artists in our community are at various stages in their careers, we have created three different plans for you to choose from Plan Manor, Plan Palace, and Plan Castle.

This is an excellent opportunity for anyone interested in doing a Solo Show with us.

This service is by request only so if you would like to know more you can contact us via the contact form or email us at [email protected]

Kind Regards,

HMVC Gallery New York
