Artists Wanted is a collaborative project between several New York City artists and creative organizations working to build new lasting opportunities for emerging talent. Through hosting online portfolios and open calls for art, Artists Wanted provides multiple channels to discover and showcase emerging artists across the globe. Founders Jason Goodman and William Etundi Jr. believe great talent deserves endless attention, and have made it their mission to support artistic endeavors through unique, far ­reaching and lasting opportunities.

Over the past 5 years, Artists Wanted has awarded emerging creative talents with over $100,000 in grants, several high-­profile gallery receptions, exposure to hundreds of thousands of viewers, as well as a year of free living in a $1.2 million dollar New York City apartment, with much more to come.

Featured Artist | Andreas von Gehr
Based in Chile, mixed-­media artist Andreas von Gehr captures the intersection of photography, digital media and painting in an exploration and experimentation of the disarticulation and reconstruction of the image. As the son of a German citizen who emigrated to Chile in the 1960s, von Gehr’s visual productions incorporate themes surrounding notions of family and the condition of the immigrant.
