We have been enjoying your artistic talent for three years now. From light to still lives, we have offered you a theme every month – and you have sent us your brilliant artworks around it. We are now putting the finishing touches on our London exhibition, which will open on 15 September in our headquarters at Kings Place.

Coinciding with this landmark, our monthly assignments will now change. Introducing the A to Z of Readers’ Art: from now on, we will ask guest artists, curators and critics to choose our monthly themes, in alphabetical order. Those will include artistic movements, ideas, art history milestones, and more. We will have a piece introducing each theme and, at the end of the month, our guest will choose a few of their favourites.

Let’s start! For our September challenge, critic Jonathan Jones invites you to surprise us: create your own self-referential work of art about art.
