Open Call: Art Responding to 250 Years of “Selective Freedom”

A Long Train: 250 Years of Hypocrisy examines the unfinished promises of American independence.

 

Curated by Aaron Wilder, A Long Train: 250 Years of Hypocrisy is an online-only exhibition hosted by Amos Eno Gallery on Artsy.net, from February 22 to April 4, 2026. This exhibition invites artists to engage critically with the Declaration of Independence as a historical document of selective freedom—one whose promises were unevenly distributed and whose consequences remain unfinished.

 

Artists based anywhere in the U.S. are encouraged to apply to this exhibition through an Open Call.

 

Deadline: February 8, 2025

Fee: $35* (for up to 3 works)

 

Exhibition Description:

The Declaration of Independence claimed “a long train of abuses and usurpations,” which its authors enumerated as grievances against their colonial overlord. 2026 marks the 250th anniversary of this Declaration. This exhibition does not commemorate independence as a completed achievement. Instead, it asks who was included, who was erased, and what freedoms remain incomplete; and explores how colonial language, property, and sovereignty shaped—and continue to shape—systems of value, belonging, and authority.

 

Platform and Economic Disclosure:

This exhibition will be presented on the Artsy profile of Amos Eno Gallery, a nonprofit, artist co-op. Artsy requires that all exhibited works be listed for sale. Submission fees and sales commissions support the operational survival of the gallery. These economic structures are acknowledged as part of the broader systems of value, property, and circulation that this exhibition critically examines. Participation does not imply endorsement of these systems.
