Davenport Rock Island Moline, IA, October 27, 2026 —

Muscatine artist Jim Elias’s painting The Wait has been selected for “Cancer 2026: Never Give Up, For the Lives We Hold Close,” a digital juried international exhibition presented online by Gallerium.

The announcement identifies Elias as a Muscatine artist and describes The Wait as a painting. It does not provide further information about the artwork, including its subject, materials, or when it was created. No additional details about the selection process or the exhibition’s organizers were included.

The exhibition’s title refers to cancer and to people held close, but the information provided does not describe the work’s specific connection to those themes. It also does not say whether Elias created the painting in response to a personal experience or another circumstance. Those details should not be inferred from the title alone.

Gallerium is identified as the presenter, and the exhibition is described as digital and international. The announcement does not give a launch date, the length of the exhibition, a web address, or information about other selected artists and works. It also does not specify the jury members, the number of submissions considered, or the criteria used to select the painting.

The available information confirms Elias’s selection but leaves several practical and contextual details unprovided. No statement from Elias or Gallerium accompanied the announcement, and no further information was supplied about how viewers can access the online exhibition.
