Artiade Olympics of Art

Artiade is an international exhibition that brings together artists from around the world to showcase their work. There are no application fees, no participation fees, and no exhibition fees.

Anonymous Jury Selection

Artists are selected through an anonymous selection process. Your work is evaluated on artistic merit alone, without consideration of name, reputation, or country of origin.

An international jury reviews all applications anonymously. They see only the artwork—no artist names, no biographical information, no country identifiers.

This video from the 2024 jury meeting in France shows the selection process in action:

The jury meets in person to review and discuss submitted works. Final selections are made collectively based solely on the artistic quality of the work presented.

Previous Exhibitions

New York 2024

The 3rd Artiade returned in 2024 with an exhibition in New York. The jury selected 105 artists from over 60 countries for participation.

The selected artists represented work across all categories—Painting, Drawing, Sculpture, Photography, Digital Art, Video/Film, Installation, Street Art, Illustration, Collage, Mixed Media. The diversity of artistic approaches demonstrated what emerges when selection is determined purely by merit rather than reputation or institutional affiliation.

Athens 2004

The second Artiade exhibition took place in Athens during the 2004 Olympic Games. From thousands of applications, 173 artists from 80 countries were selected to exhibit in a specially renovated 4,000 square meter venue—a former ceramic factory converted for the exhibition.
