About the Open Call

Each year, ESC invites artists to imagine roughly ten years ahead, keeping in mind the pressure points of now: climate change, extraction, life in a system, and what it means to remain human inside all that. We are looking for works that speak of either nature, technology, or human existence — from subtle gestures to monumental systems. ESC 2036 will be built as if it were a fragment of that near future, grounded in the present yet pointing somewhere else.

What is Offered

Selected works will be shown in a curated group exhibition in 2026–2027 in the Netherlands, featured on the gallery's website and social media, and provided with networking opportunities and potential curatorial support.

Requirements

One link per artist or team. Completed projects are preferred, but new projects are welcome if they can be realized in time for the exhibition.

How to Apply

Submit one link to your portfolio, website, or project page via the provided Google Form link.
