Open Call for Jaipur Art Week (5th Edition) – India

Encouraging artists to make the work they want to, and not to try to fit it into a pre-set curatorial boundary, there are no set submission criteria or geographical boundaries to participation, ensuring the artist’s voice is always front and centre.

Selected artists will be given the opportunity to showcase their work in a group exhibition or as solo interventions across their partner venues throughout Jaipur.

Benefits

• All selected artists will be paired with an Artist Mentor who will provide between 1-3 virtual studio visits to support the development of your work for Jaipur Art Week 5.0. Additionally, you’ll receive curatorial support and guidance from PATI’s team.
• During Jaipur Art Week, exhibiting artists will have the opportunity to showcase their work to an international audience with PATI’s team supporting introductions to international museum and gallery professionals, collectors and more.
