The gallery’s exhibition for September 2026 is the 16th Annual “Cityscapes” Online Art Competition. Both 2D and 3D, artists, from around the world, were asked for their interpretation of the “Cityscapes” theme by submitting their best representational and/or abstract art.
The gallery received 377 entries from 16 different countries from around the world, as well as from 22 different states and the District of Columbia.
The exhibition has been divided into two media categories - Painting & Other Media and Photography & Digital. Due to a limited number of entries in the 3 Dimensional category, those artworks have been included in the Painting and Other Media category. In addition, there is an overall Winning Artists Category, which is the “best of the best” and consists of the twelve (12) best entries comprised from all the media categories.
The gallery also included Special Merit awards and Special Recognition awards for outstanding art. Many of the artists in either of these groups could have easily been included in the upper tier of our winners, as their art was also exceptional.
All winning entries will now be featured on the Light Space & Time website homepage for the 3 months. Thereafter, the artworks and links to the artist’s websites will remain online in the Light Space & Time Archives for 5 years.
Congratulations to our artists who made our 16th Annual “Cityscapes” Art Exhibition so successful this month.

The Light Space & Time Online Art Gallery announces the winners of the 32nd "Solo Art Series" Art Competition.
The competition closed on January 5, 2026, with 51 artists submitting work for consideration. Our selection panel chose 12 finalists, awarding 4 artists month-long solo exhibitions and 8 artists featured placement in our Artist Showcase.
We thank all participants for their submissions. The strength and diversity of work presented this year made for a highly competitive field and a demanding selection process.
Entries were evaluated on multiple criteria, including artistic quality, portfolio strength, and the artist's ability to articulate their practice through their biography and statement.

Of the 51 artists who submitted to this “Solo Art Series” competition, 25 advanced past the initial review stage based on the strength of their artwork, biography, and artist's statement. From these 25 artists, 19 were selected as finalists, with 12 ultimately chosen for recognition. The quality among finalists was consistently strong, making final selections highly competitive.
Each solo exhibition will be promoted through press release distribution to hundreds of major news outlets and art news websites, as well as through the gallery's extensive social media network.
The 8 Artist Showcase recipients will receive similar promotional support, including distribution to major news outlets, art news websites, and social media channels.
Winning artists will be featured on ArtWeek, which generates 800,000 page impressions monthly, attracts 280,000 website visitors per month, and reaches 30,000 newsletter subscribers.
Solo exhibition winners will also receive a YouTube video presentation of their body of work, an event postcard, a press release, and links to their website as part of their achievement package.
The gallery's Solo Art Series Archives can be accessed here. Our next “Solo Art Series” competition will open for entries in March 2026.
We thank all participants for their interest in our “Solo Art Series” and congratulate the winners.
