★★★ OPEN CALL FOR ARTISTS ★★★

The Untitled Magazine x The Untitled Space

THE “DREAM” ISSUE + EXHIBITION

Early Submission Deadline: June 21, 2026

Standard Submission Deadline: July 12, 2026

REALITY BEGINS WITH DREAMS…

The Untitled Magazine and The Untitled Space are now accepting submissions for THE “DREAM” ISSUE AND EXHIBITION — celebrating visionary contemporary artists working across all mediums, including painting, photography, sculpture, mixed media, installation, wearable art, digital art, video art, performance art, and experimental practices.

Presented as both a Collector’s Print + Digital Edition and curated exhibition at The Untitled Space gallery in Tribeca, New York, THE “DREAM” ISSUE + EXHIBITION invites contemporary artists to submit artwork inspired by the theme of dreams — from subconscious inner worlds, surrealism, dream states, memory, and symbolism, to visionary futures, transformation, manifestation, utopian visions, and imagined realities.

The issue and exhibition is an invitation to surrender to the imagination and the spectacular inner life that artists access when they dare to dream beyond reality. Dreams are where the most radical new visions are born. Every movement, every revolution, every masterpiece began as someone's dream. 

What visions are you dreaming into existence?
