Al-Tiba9 Art Magazine ISSUE21

Al-Tiba9 Art Magazine is accepting submissions for ISSUE21, its May 2026 edition — a 116-page, fully curated publication printed on high-quality museum paper with no commercial advertising.

This is an opportunity for artists, architects, and designers from anywhere in the world to be featured in a respected international art publication. Selected artists receive up to six pages in both the print and digital versions of the magazine, showcasing their artworks, biography, artist statement, and an interview.

The magazine is distributed as a limited-edition ArtPrint at prominent international art book fairs including ARCOmadrid, ARCOlisboa, ArtsLibris Barcelona (held at MACBA Contemporary Art Museum), and ZonaMaco Mexico City — giving selected artists meaningful global visibility. Featured artists are also promoted via the Al-Tiba9 website and newsletter.

Eligibility: Open to artists working in any medium or technique, from all countries. Artists who have appeared in previous issues are welcome to apply, provided they submit entirely new works.

Disciplines: Digital art, photography, painting, architecture, sculpture and installation, film and video art, fashion design, interior design, and performance.

Submission requirements:

• Applications must be submitted through the official online form on the Al-Tiba9 website — email applications will not be accepted
• Only one application per artist
• All text (biography, statement) must be written in English, in the third person
• If sharing additional files via Google Drive or Dropbox, the folder must be set to public/open access — WeTransfer links will not be accepted

Fees: Free to apply. A selection fee applies only to artists who are chosen for publication — the exact amount depends on the selection outcome.

Deadline: 26 April 2026 at 11:00 PM.
