Call for Entry Deadline

Eligibility: International

Probably the most common question artists get asked is: “What inspired you to make this artwork?“.

Throughout history artists have been inspired by their experiences, the environment around them, their culture, politics, and imagination. As the concept of art and creating art developed over time, artists began to be inspired by other artists and their art styles.

Each artist has their own individual perspective, style, and creative vision resulting in art that is deeply personal to them.

So we can conclude that an artist’s influence is as subjective as the art itself.

In September we celebrate our 1 year anniversary and in our group show ”Influence” we want to showcase artworks depicting things that have influenced you and your art.

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

The winners of Best of Show and Second Place need to have a working PayPal account to receive their prize money. If the winner of the cash prize fails to provide HMVC Gallery New York with a working PayPal account, the winner will be forfeited and HMVC will be entitled to select another winner. The prize will be sent to the winner within 14 days of responding to HMVC.


The Third Place winner will have their own online Solo Show at HMVC Gallery New York and the show will run for a month. The Solo Show winner will also receive a HMVC Gallery New York solo certificate recognizing their achievement.

The show will premiere on September 1st and end on September 30th

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 “Influence” featuring all participating artists’ artworks will be screened on a jumbotron in New York City’s famous Times Square every Saturday in September.
