June 27 - August 4, 2007
Curators* are invited to send one work each by two different
artists to the "Most Curatorial Biennial of the Universe."
All works must be received between June 16-23.
Works must measure 8 inches x 10 inches with a maximum depth/height
of 4 inches, including any framing. Works can be vertical,
horizontal, or lay flat. If a work goes on the wall, it must have a
hole or a hook for hanging; if it sits on a flat surface it will be
shown at table height, next to others; it cannot be toxic, or wet
(although we will fill any "lakes or indents" with clear water if
requested).
On the back of each piece include the artist's and curator's names
and email addresses. Drop off during gallery hours or mail to:
apexart
attn: First Curatorial Biennial
291 Church Street
New York, NY 10013
Works will not be returned or insured and pieces larger or smaller
than 8x10 will not be accepted.. No COD's will be accepted. All
works must be received between June 16-23.
All works will be shown on our site if you send a 72 dpi jpeg image
of 300 x 240 pixels. Thanks for doing this.
During the show all works will be available by anonymous bidding,
starting with a $10 donation and going up in $10 increments. All
proceeds will go directly to the Robin Hood Foundation of NYC.
Absolutely no funds will go to apexart.
Submissions must be by the curator in one package. They may be
dropped off or mailed.
All submissions are accepted, nothing (legal) will be censored.
Everyone is invited to attend the opening June 27 from 6 to 8pm at
apexart either in person or via Internet camera feed, login to be
made available via email prior to opening.
Up to 1000 works will be accepted, but phone calls will not. Email
all inquiries to info@apexart.org, we'll get right back to you.
FAQ's:
Q: Can I submit more than two artists for the exhibition?
A: No.
Q: When will the works be available for pick up/distribution?
A: August 4 - (the final day of exhibition)
Q. Can really famous curators and/or artists participate?
A: You bet. apexart treats everyone the same
Q: Why should I bother? This sounds like another situation that
takes advantage of artists.
A: Depending what else is on your resume it looks good, funds go to
a really good cause and its an opportunity to have fun making
something that you wouldn't otherwise make. Participation won't make
you a famous artist if you aren't one already. Have fun, don't spend
too much time or money. Limited postage funds available on an as
needed basis.
*curators can be artists, writers, or anyone so inclined.
Thank you for your participation!
All works must be received between June 16-23.
