Palmer Gallery's open call is an annual invitation extended specifically to self-taught artists—practitioners who have not pursued formal art school training. The selected artist will present a solo exhibition within PG Studios, the gallery's online exhibition programme. This platform is designed to foreground voices that develop outside traditional academic contexts, offering a dedicated space for work that emerges from independent, autodidactic practices. The gallery's decision to focus on self-trained artists reflects a curatorial commitment to expanding the narratives that shape contemporary art. By providing a solo online exhibition, Palmer Gallery affords the winner a concentrated presentation of their work, free from the thematic constraints of group shows. The online format allows for broad accessibility while maintaining the integrity of a solo statement. While the call does not specify a theme or medium, the emphasis on self-taught status suggests an interest in artists whose work is driven by personal inquiry rather than institutional convention. Applicants should consider how their practice has evolved outside formal training and what distinct perspectives this has yielded. The gallery seeks to support artists at a pivotal moment in their careers, offering visibility and a platform for sustained engagement.
