The jury comprises people who work with art at Liljevalchs – art historians, artists, and art educators. It’s the jury’s task to select the works that they consider to fit best in this particular exhibition, and to reject others. It doesn’t mean that the rejected works aren’t good – it just means but that they simply do not fit in the best way in the exhibition.

Please note! The email will be sent to the same address you’ve stated in your digital application, so remember to keep an eye on your inbox.
The selected participants will receive instructions on when and where to deliver the work(s), how to get it/them back after the exhibition has ended and more helpful information.
