Monochrome Art Competition by Artist Space Gallery is open for November with a crisp brief and a quick turnaround. The theme is monochrome with a twist: black and white or grayscale plus a single color accent such as sepia, green, blue, red or yellow. Selected works form a curated online exhibition, with a Best of Show featured on the exhibition poster. If you browse Deartline to participate in photography challenges, this call keeps things clear, visual and timely.
Photography sits alongside other visual media, but photographers get a dedicated award track. The jury will pick winners in painting, photography and sculpture, and all selected artists receive a digital certificate along with article features for top placements. The entry fee is $20 for two artworks, and there’s no cap on how many images an artist can submit. The deadline is November 12, 2025. For shooters working in black and white photography contests, the monochrome-plus-one-color approach offers a focused brief that’s still creatively open.
