SAME SIZE, SAME PRICE, No SIGNATURE
OPEN CALL TO ALL ARTISTS
What happens when art is stripped of ego, reputation, and expectation?
You get a gallery of pure visual storytelling, where every piece stands on its own, and every artist has an equal voice.
Art on Target invites artists from across South Africa to enter the Same Size, Same Price, No Signature Exhibition: a bold, inclusive showcase where creativity takes centre stage and anonymity levels the playing field.
WHY ENTER?
It’s a celebration of artistic expression in its most democratic form!
- No judging. No selection. All qualifying works are exhibited.
- No signatures on the front. Buyers choose what they love, purely on instinct.
- Equal opportunity. Emerging and established artists exhibit side-by-side.
- Fixed price. Every artwork sells for R1500.
- Future opportunity. All participants are considered for the Curator’s Choice Exhibition the following year.
Whether you’re just starting out or a seasoned professional, this is your chance to be seen, collected, and celebrated.
A LEGACY OF ACCESSIBLE ART
Now in its sixth edition at Art on Target, this much-loved exhibition was originally initiated by Eastern Cape art doyenne Tossie Theron. Since taking up the mantle in 2019, Art on Target has grown the exhibition into a vibrant, inclusive platform that champions community, creativity, and connection.
