2025

It’s a tradition at HMVC Gallery to Rewind and Reflect every December on the last year and revisit artworks our artists have created. For artists, anything and everything can be a source of inspiration, so whatever you have created this year let us and our community see it! Whether you like to look back and reflect on your own life or capture a moment or an event from this year, that´s what our December 2025 group show is all about.
The artworks submitted must have been produced this year.

Open Call — ArtSeen at the Guggenheim

On March 26, 2026, the Guggenheim opens Gabriele Münter: Contours of a World — a landmark exhibition celebrating one of modernism’s greats. ArtSeen invites you to join the moment, with your work showcased on a circulating taxi gallery around the museum.

Vibrant Visions 2

As November brings one of the darkest stretches of the year, we turn instead toward color and vibrancy, creating a group art show for artists who dream in color. “Vibrant Visions 2” is a continuation of “Vibrant Visions,” a very colorful show we curated in November 2023.

Forty thousand years ago, the human color palette was limited to just five pigments—red, yellow, brown, black, and white—yet with them, early creators filled the caves of Sulawesi and Altamira with enduring visions. Centuries later, the color blue, ground from precious Lapis Lazuli, became more valuable than gold, reserved solely for religious artworks.

Whispers of October

Our curated October group art show invites artists to explore and express the delicate, fleeting beauty inherent in the month of October. As the world transitions from vibrant warmth to quiet introspection, “Whispers of October” seeks to capture the subtle emotions, transient moments, and poetic nuances that define this unique time of year.
