Summer Exhibition 2014

9 June – 17 August

Held without interruption since 1769, the Summer Exhibition is the largest open submission exhibition in the world, displaying works in a variety of mediums and genres by emerging and established artists. The works are selected and hung by Royal Academicians and entry is open to all artists. In 2013, nearly seventy per cent of the exhibits were by non-Academicians, seventy thousand pounds’ worth of prizes was awarded and over five thousand works were sold.

Digital submission to the 2014 Summer Exhibition - 6 January – 14 February

For the first round of the selection process, artists must submit digital photographs of their work online. The judges will shortlist up to 4,000 entries to be delivered to the Academy for a second round. We hope that this new system will make the submission process easy for artists.
