Would (or should) you use the same image that helped you get accepted into a show the previous year? Assuming that image fits the time parameters requested by that show, and it fits cohesively into your current body of work. What do you think?

As an artist, I like to include images of my new work, something the jury has never seen before. It increases my chances of having my work chosen for publicity, and it also gives me a sense of satisfaction to show something new and different every year. Now that digital images are accepted it's not nearly as expensive as it used to be to have new images available.

We always felt it was important to have new jury slides each year, to continually push to have new and better work, not for the jury necessarily but for the satisfaction of the growth it represented.

But to answer your question, supposedly the jurors change year to year and they won't know you submitted the same images for the previous year's application. I've posted this before. Some artists have sent the same jury images since the early 1980's and some keep the same presentation and just upgrade an individual image if it can replace an existing jury image to improve their presentation.
