Curatone.art, an independent curatorial platform based in Berlin, invites artists worldwide to the Portrait and Figure Open Call 2026, an international juried online exhibition dedicated to human presence in art: face, body, gesture and identity. Any medium and any style are welcome; works may be made from life, from photographs, from memory or from imagination. Open to artists aged 18+ from any country, up to 2 works per artist. Thirty credentialed art professionals, including artists, curators and art directors, score every work independently on a 10-point scale through blind review. Results are announced on November 16, 2026. The Grand Prize winner receives $100 cash, a Winner's Diploma and a free solo exhibition on Curatone.art. Finalists receive a numbered finalist diploma, a certificate with the jury evaluation protocol, publication in an international exhibition catalogue with an ISBN and a place in the online exhibition with a permanent archive page. The top 3 finalists also receive a Featured Artist profile. Submission is free. A one-time $25 finalist fee applies only if the jury selects the work.
