Call for Art work submissions for exhibition 'Image to Object'

About

Red Gate Gallery invites artists to submit work for an exhibition in January 2011 titled 'Image to Object'. Artists are asked to submit works which explore the relationship between the nature of the image and the object whilst challenging the boundaries between 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional disciplines. The exhibition will ask where the image ends and the object begins and discuss how the artist's process or intervention transforms the image into an object, or vice versa. Taking inspiration from art which uses devices such as the vitrine, archives, assemblage, found objects/ready-mades artists are invited to test the interface between space, material and process. Work can be in any form, including, but not limited to, painting, drawing, photography, installation, sculpture, live art or performance art. Artists are asked that submitted works are no bigger than 80cm wide (two-dimensional) or 1m x 1m 1m (floor standing). We can provide plinths for small sculptural pieces. In order to accommodate all artists within the space, each artist will be limited to one work each. The gallery will curate the show, send out invitations, invite the press, invigilate the show and organise the private view. Accepted artists will be asked for a submission fee of £75 which is exclusively to cover the cost of the space, marketing costs and production of promotional postcards and a catalogue. Artists are asked to submit several images indicative of the work they would like to make for the show, or an image of an existing piece, along with a statement, CV, contact details and a website link if available by 12th November 2010. The show will take place from 14th Jan 2011 to 1st Feb 2011 with a private view taking place on 14th Jan, with delivery days on Tuesday 11th and Wednesday 12th. Artists will be asked to arrange to collect their work on 2nd Feb. Contact Yara Tschallener 020 7326 0993 or info@redgategallery.co.uk
