PUNCH Gallery International Juried Exhibition
December 1 - 31, 2011
Deadline: October 28, 2011
PUNCH Gallery presents an international juried exhibition taking place December 2011. Located in the Pioneer Square area of downtown Seattle, PUNCH provides an excellent opportunity to gain exposure within the Northwest regional art scene.
Artists from any country may submit work in any medium. There is no limit to the number of entries. In addition to traditional 2-D and 3-D works, artists are encouraged to submit work in new media, video, sound, or installation. Complicated installation procedures may require the artist to assist with installation. Members of PUNCH are not eligible to enter.
Juror
Stefano Catalani
Director of Curatorial Affairs/Artistic Director
at the Bellevue Arts Museum
Awards
Cash award(s) determined by number of entries will be distributed at the juror’s discretion. Our previous juried exhibition presented cash awards totaling $1,300. Several entrants were also offered additional exhibition opportunities curated by PUNCH members.
Entry fees
• $10 application fee
• $5 per image or media file
Fees are nonrefundable. Entries must be submitted using the CaFÉ entry system.
Acceptable Files
For 2-D and 3-D works, please submit JPEG files and prepare your images according to the CaFÉ guidelines. Video files may be submitted in .mov or .mp4 format, and sound files may be submitted in .mp3 format. Please see the CaFÉ File Preparation Guidelines for more information. For installation or site-specific projects, you may submit proposal images.
Sales
PUNCH will retain a 30% commission on all artwork sales. It is not required, however, that accepted works be for sale.
Size Limitation
Work must be able to fit through our front door (81”x40”).
Insurance
Every precaution will be taken to assure that your work is handled with utmost care and respect during installation and throughout the run of the exhibition. However, it is the artist's responsibility to carry insurance for any of their works in the exhibition. PUNCH will not be responsible for damage, theft or loss of any kind.
Shipping and Return
Accepted work must be sent in sturdy, reusable crates or boxes. Artwork will be returned via the same carrier that delivered it, or it may be picked up at PUNCH Gallery with prior arrangement. Work will be insured for return only if the owner requests and pays for this. A post-dated check or money order (postdated for December 31, 2011) should be included with the work when it arrives and be written for the amount covering return costs. In the event that the work is sold, the check or money order will be returned to the artist.
