ArtBridge 2009: First Exposure Exhibition Guidelines and Entry Form

New Extended Deadline:

Submit by December 15th, 2008 Now Open To:

All Emerging NYC-based artsts.

Artbridge™ is an organization created by artists for artists, whose purpose is to develop, curate and showcase works of large format art for public display and enjoyment. Through Artbridge, artists have the opportunity to exhibit their work to a wider public audience including the casual observer and art enthusiast alike. All projects are large scale, sometimes taking the artists into unfamiliar territories and bringing new and interesting influences to communities. Artbridge takes the experience of art beyond gallery walls and moves it onto the street where it can be fully experienced. In a city under constant construction and redevelopment, Artbridge installations attempt to interact with pedestrians in a new way, bringing light, color, form and beauty to our daily outdoor world.

ArtBridge 2009: First Exposure Exhibition Guidelines and Entry Form

Email entry deadline: Monday, December 15th, 2008 Art Drop-off deadline for Selected Art: Saturday, January 31st, 2009 Overview: For installation in Spring 2009, our curatorial team is interested in work for an outdoor exhibition featuring all emerging, New York based artists, with chosen work to be prominently displayed at a well-known, outdoor Chelsea location throughout the 2009 calendar year. Submission considerations: Chosen work will be reproduced in extra-large, high-resolution format, with final printed sizes ranging from 4ft high x 12ft wide to 4ft high x 25ft wide. These unique proportions may or may not suit your work, so please consider the submission requirementsbefore entering (see below). Location: The chosen location for placement of the final works is well-known and in the heart of West Chelsea. Specific location to be disclosed closer to the show date. There will be an opening night event as well as press for the show. Each artist will also be listed at www.art-bridge.org website with links connecting to each artists individual site. Entry Guidelines: In order to participate, you must be an emerging New York City-based artist. Thank you in advance for your adherence. • Please submit only one (1) JPEG per artist. • Work can be in any medium, on any paper or canvas, stretched or unstretched • There is no specfic theme or narrative for the exhibition, though we believe that abstract works may be best suited for the size and format of this show. How that is interpreted is up to you. Submission can also be a detail of a larger piece. Working to Correct Size: (Please see template on page 5). Because of the unusually large final reproduction size of each piece, you will need to follow the exact measurements provided on the PDF template. Working from this document will guarantee correct reproduction of your work in the final show. Submissions that do not fit this format cannot be nconsidered.

Final Selections, Reproduction, Participation and Exhibition: Due to the physical limitations of the outdoor space, only a select group of artists will be chosen. Given the considerable costs of producing this exhibition, if your submission is chosen there is a participation fee of $195 that helps to defer the cost of production, printing, photography, handling and hanging of the art. Please consider, in reference to the cost, that your work will be prominently displayed, outdoors in the heart of West Chelsea for approximatley one (1) calendar year along with your bio and contact information posted on our website for the same period. We also expect a fair amount of press for the exhibit. Photography of Chosen Pieces, Return of Art, Artists rights and Ownership: All pieces chosen for show will be photographed by ArtBridge and converted to digital format for reproduction at 300dpi in CMYK process printing on weather-resistant, fade-resistant material. All art can be picked up after photogrphy is completed. Date TBD. As the artist, you retain full ownership of your original piece and are free to sell it after the opening date. The large reproductions (the actual pieces that are hung for the show) become the property of Artbridge. If there is outside interest in buying one of the panels at the end of the show, it can be sold at a price chosen by each individual artist. Artbridge will receive 20% of the final sale price. Condition of panels may vary widely when removed from installation. Therefore, we are not responsible for the condition of panels or thier usability upon removal. Press photos and official photos of exhibition taken by Artbridge are the property of Artbridge, and will be available upon request to be used by each artist solely for their own promotion. These photos may not be used, reproduced, sold or circulated in any other way without expressed written permission from Artbridge.
