Rules for All Applications and Publications

Update – November 2025

Application Process

Artists must submit their works together with all the required information for the chosen open call or publication opportunity.

Each submission is reviewed by the NNC Gallery London Project curatorial team, which decides whether to include the artist in one or more of the following:

the NNC Challenge

the Photography Magazine

the Artist of the Month feature

the Special Guest Selection

or any other active open call or editorial project

All curatorial decisions made by NNC Gallery London Project are final and non-appealable.

Selection & Publication Process

Initial Review: After the first evaluation, artists may be asked to provide additional artworks or information.

Timing: Depending on the project type, the selection and publication process can take several months to ensure proper curation.

Progressive Publication: Selected works may first be shared as exclusive previews with collectors, curators, or gallery partners, and only later appear in online or print editions.

In some cases, selected artists may enter a monitoring phase (up to two years) to evaluate their artistic and professional growth before being officially presented to the wider network.

Obligations of Selected Artists

Selected artists must provide all requested materials within one month from notification.
Failure to provide complete materials may result in exclusion from the project or publication.

All decisions regarding:

critical texts,

publication timing,

editorial layout, and

promotional activities
are made by NNC Gallery London Project and are final.

Voluntary Withdrawal

Artists who wish to withdraw from a program or open call must notify NNC Gallery in advance.
Likewise, the curatorial team may discontinue collaborations with artists whose work no longer aligns with the gallery’s curatorial philosophy or professional standards.

Free Copies

Please note that no complimentary copies (digital or print) of magazines, catalogs, or publications are provided to participating artists.
All works remain accessible through our official online platforms.

Editorial Rules for All Open Calls

The editorial team reserves the right to:

crop or reframe images and use selected details;

publish horizontal images across two pages (which may include a central division);

rotate or resize artworks for layout purposes;

adjust tones, colors, or proportions to maintain design consistency;

use artworks or details for covers or promotional materials.

All adjustments are made solely to enhance presentation quality, in line with the gallery’s curatorial and aesthetic vision.
The gallery is not required to seek prior approval from the artist for editorial or design decisions.

Rights & Usage

NNC Gallery does not claim ownership or copyright of submitted works.

By applying, the artist grants NNC Gallery the right to use submitted images, texts, and information for curatorial, editorial, and promotional purposes, both online and in print, without further permissions.

Copyright remains fully with the artist.
