2026 Juried Selection

Opening Reception: Thursday, August 13, 6–8 PM

‍

The Art Students League of New York proudly presents its 2026 Juried Selection Exhibition at Fridman Gallery in the Bowery. This exhibition features juror-selected works from the nearly 100 Student Salons, student showcases that were held at the League between January and May 2026. Displaying a myriad of techniques and styles across mediums, these works are a testament to the caliber of League artists past and present.

The League’s Student Salons is an annual series of exhibitions featuring recent student work across all disciplines taught at the League. The Student Salons are open to any student who chooses to display their work. Juried by invited guests — prominent artists, curators, or scholars within the art world —the Juried Selection Exhibition presents artwork chosen from the open Student Salons and represents the independent jurors’ favorite student artworks. Here, the best of the best come together in one exhibition, providing a picture of the League today.
