Gain insights into the rigorous selection process of the Royal Academy’s Summer Exhibition, a prestigious platform offering a golden chance for amateur artists.<\/span><\/p>\n \r\n\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n There’s a special kind of anticipation in the air that comes around every summer in the heart of London. Yes, it’s that time of the year again – the Royal Academy’s <\/span>Summer Exhibition<\/span><\/a>. The prestigious event has been the dream destination for many budding artists for over two and a half centuries. Now, the question remains, how stiff is the competition, and who are some notable artists that failed to crack the code?<\/span><\/p>\n This globally acclaimed exhibition, a continuous tradition since 1769, has showcased the works of many renowned artists, including David Hockney, Grayson Perry, and Thomas Gainsborough. Over the years, it has offered a unique platform for amateur artists to showcase their talents to the public, possibly even scoring a sale of their work.<\/span><\/p>\n However, the competition is daunting. For instance, this year witnessed over 11,000 hopeful artists submitting their work, but a mere 10% managed to secure their art a spot. The submission limit stands at 16,500 entries per year, reflecting the massive interest and competitive nature of this event.<\/span><\/p>\n The RA Summer Exhibition is open!<\/p>\n View over 1600 works, some you’ll already know and some you’ll want to get to know!<\/p>\n Don’t miss the hottest show of the season \ud83d\udd25 (don’t worry, we have AC \u2744\ufe0f)<\/p>\n Book now: https:\/\/t.co\/eAW9lRRZFe<\/a><\/p>\n Thanks to @InsightInvestIM<\/a> our exhibition sponsor. pic.twitter.com\/HdHvuJluWY<\/a><\/p>\n\r\n
