Figurative Art is an open call and publication exploring the enduring power of the human figure as a site of meaning, emotion, and narrative.

Abstract Art 🟢

This edition brings together diverse approaches to abstraction, from geometric and minimal compositions to expressive, intuitive, and conceptual works. It embraces abstraction as both a visual strategy and a way of thinking—one that reflects inner states, cultural structures, and contemporary realities.
