Side x Side Contemporary is a non-profit online platform with a mission to open the margins of contemporary art with an accessible and expansive program for viewing and exhibiting the work of global artists.

We are creating a new kind of approachable venue by eliminating some of the barriers to exhibiting work on an international level. Through initiatives such as blind jurying processes, free open calls, and unrestricted geographical participation, we are opening doors to circulate fresh viewpoints from a worldwide audience. We exist to support artists of varying backgrounds by creating a space for opportunity, interconnection, and exchange.

Side x Side Contemporary has several opportunities for global artists during each year including, but not limited to online exhibitions, interviews, and social media feature/exhibitions. Contemporary artists from anywhere on this planet are encouraged to apply. Side x Side Contemporary runs by volunteer curators who are interested in finding and exhibiting the strong works of global artists at every level. They are also committed to supporting marginalized and underrepresented artists.
We will post the opportunities on our website and social media page regularly. But if you would like to bring your work to the attention of our curatorial team for a separate opportunity, please send us your website address, 5-10 images of your work, artist statement and a CV(or a short bio) via email. Our curatorial team review email submissions regularly. If there is interest from our curators , you will be contacted about further steps.
