2008
open opportunities for artists at the Riverside Gallery, Richmond
Liveline: Comics Open (1 March - 13 April 2008)
Through its annual open exhibition
opportunities, Orleans House Gallery in Twickenham helps artists both
locally and nationally to showcase their work in group exhibitions. In
2006-7, over 500 individual artists (excluding those participating in
Arthouse) exhibited work in a range of open exhibitions across three
galleries - Orleans and Stables Galleries, Twickenham and the Riverside
Gallery in Richmond. Since 2005, there have been 4 exhibitions
dedicated to or incorporating comic art. Deadline end of January 2008.
In 2008, we have further
opportunities for you to submit artwork for the second of our comic
open exhibitions. We are seeking original artwork (digitally created
work is accepted) and printed comics by up-and-coming and established
artists who are self-published or work for small-scale or independent
publishers.
Artists can submit up to 5 original works (and
5 comics) either via A4 sized photographic prints, colour printouts or
high-resolution jpegs submitted on CD. Original artwork is not
accepted. Comics can be submitted.
Please clearly label each submission with:
artist’s name, title of work, publication, date, media, approximate
size and price before commission if the work is for sale (the gallery
will add on an additional 40% commission to the artist’s price). In
addition, please enclose contact details, an artists statement and if
possible a CV.
There is a �10.00 administration charge (which
also contributes towards exhibition costs); �7.50 concessions (please
include proof). Please make cheques payable to ‘L.B.R.U.T’. Your
submission will not be accepted without payment.
If you would like images or comics returned,
please enclose a stamped self-addressed envelope.
Successful artists will be contacted by email
or in writing approximately two weeks after the deadline.
