If you want to enter works for the exhibition then all the information you need is here The final deadline for entries is 4 September 2010 Each selector's section is hung separately giving the impression of six small exhibitions within the whole. The exhibition provides an unusual opportunity for works by lesser-known artists to be hung alongside contributions from internationally recognised names.The selectors are solely responsible for their own selection; selection is not by committee. The only restrictions are limitation of size (only small works are permitted) and to select at least 25% of their section from the open submission. All works must be for sale and the Discerning Eye's commission helps to fund our activities.The open submission draws in around 2,500 works and there are usually between 500 and 600 works hung.The exhibition is held at The Mall Galleries in London every November and is made possible by the continuing generosity of our sponsor - ING Commercial Banking.
