EXHIBITIONS OPPORTUNITY - CALL TO ARTISTS

Call for Artspace Exhibition Proposals
Applications due between June 15 and August 1 2009 on www.callforentry.org

Artspace is seeking innovative proposals from artists working in 2-dimensional or 3-dimensional media for solo and/or group shows. We have been recognized for presenting award-winning exhibitions in three exhibition galleries that feature regional, national, and international artists.
Proposals are being sought for exhibitions through 2011. Our galleries are dedicated to challenging exhibitions by both emerging and established artists.

Exhibitions run for 6-8 weeks with an opening reception being held during First Friday Gallery Walks. Most exhibits include a gallery talk or slide lecture presented by the artist. All exhibits are supported by press and insurance coverage and are free and open to the public. Works may be for sale however, Artspace does not place an emphasis on the sale of artwork but rather on the artistic quality of the work being presented. Artspace takes a small commission of 30% on works sold in our galleries.

To Apply 
submit the below information via www.callforentry.org. Submissions will NOT be accepted in any other format.
  • 10 images of recent work (completed within the last two years). Please include detailed information with each image including title, medium, dimensions, date completed, etc.
  • Current resume.
  • Artist Statement (maximum 3000 words).
  • Description of proposed exhibition.
  • $15 application fee (mail checks or pay online with a credit card).
