Brand New!! Novel English Fine Art Monastic Enjoin Annual Exhibition 2013 - Telephone Telephone For Entries

, , , , , , , , , , Edit
I ever await forwards to the Annual Exhibition of the New English linguistic communication Art Club (NEAC).  It has a lot of fantabulous painters - in addition to it's besides an fine art fellowship which is a fighting to a greater extent than switched on to the selling side of the business.  These are non painters who are exhibiting purely for the kudos - real many of them are serious professional person painters who do this for a living.  So sales matter.

I've oftentimes idea that if in that place were an Art Society Open Exhibition to aspire to larn into, in addition to therefore it would live the Annual Exhibition of the New English linguistic communication Art Club.

However, yesteryear implication, operate selected from the opened upward entry needs to reckon only about pretty high standards inwards terms of aesthetic in addition to commercial criteria.

This calendar week the Call for Entries has gone out for the adjacent Annual Exhibition which volition run from 29 Nov - 8 Dec 2013 at the Mall Galleries.

This post outlines the procedure for submitting operate via the opened upward entry.  Comments (as opposed to quotes) inwards italics are mine.

The images inwards this post are from the 2012 exhibition in addition to at the halt of this post are links to my reviews of previous exhibitions which besides comprise images of artwork selected for exhibition.

Caution!

Before I start, it's worth noting that if you lot only await at the Mall Galleries "website brief" for this exhibition you lot may non attain a total agreement of what's required.  You MUST read the Call for Entries leaflet.  Some of the "must know" data is solely inwards the leaflet - in addition to in that place is no link to the leaflet on the website brief!  There again, only about of the data is solely on the website in addition to non inwards the leaflet!  I've tried to brand the distinctions clear below.

Who tin enter?


This exhibition is opened upward to non-members.

  • Website brief: There are no constraints on who tin enter.
  • Call for Entries Leaflet: Artists must live aged eighteen or over in addition to alive or operate inwards the U.K. or EU. 

What variety of artwork is eligible?


The website brief in addition to the Call for Entries Leaflet both brand a bald arguing nigh what artists intending to submit an entry involve to know
Work submitted to the NEAC must have got a concern for the concept, allied to craft, equally this is integral to artists's pathway in addition to career.NEAC Call for Entries
It's besides relevant to banknote the arguing on the front end page of the NEAC website
The New English linguistic communication represents the real best of contemporary British figurative painting.
In relation to other aspects of what variety of artwork is eligible
  • Maximum pose out of plant which tin live submitted: 6. Maximum of v plant selected. The societies vary equally to how many plant a fellow member or non-member may submit. Five plant from a non-member is a lot in addition to it's real odd for a lot of non-member plant to live selected! If you've non previously been selected I'd recommend a smaller pose out live submitted if submission is going to live a pregnant expense for you.  It would live skillful to reckon societies publicising how many opened upward entries they received, how many were selected in addition to how many non-member artists had operate selected.  
  • Age of work: 
    • Website: Work must have got been completed inside the concluding 2 years.
    • Call for Entries Leaflet: No restrictions specified
  • Size of work: 
    • Website: No restrictions specified
    • Call for Entries Leaflet: Works must non top 2.4m inwards size inwards whatsoever administration  
  • Acceptable media: 
    • Website: Not specified on the website - therefore only about volition assume no stated limitations or exclusions.  
    • Call for Entries Leaflet: Paintings, drawings, pastels, master framed prints (please especial edition). Sculpture is NOT admissible. I've ever wondered what NEAC would do if somebody submitted a digital painting!
  • Work for sale / pricing:  
    • Website: No stipulation nigh operate beingness for sale or minimum price
    • Call for Entries Leaflet - explicit that all operate must live for sale.  Minimum toll £300, unframed prints £120.
    • You tin larn a pricing benchmark to operate from yesteryear checking out the NEAC Shop to reckon what variety of prices the members are charging for their work 
    • All prices involve to allow for committee @45% addition VAT (e.g. on a operate priced at £1,000 yesteryear an creative someone who doesn't have got to accuse VAT - £450  will live deducted yesteryear the Mall Galleries for committee in addition to they in addition to therefore besides deduct VAT @20% on the £450 (£90) in addition to pay this over to HM Customs & Excise. The creative someone volition in addition to therefore live sent a cheque for £460 beingness the repose later deductions.  Artists amongst turnover (total sales value) inwards excess of the VAT threshold must include for VAT on the toll of the ikon ie £200.  So if you lot sell a lot you lot brand fifty-fifty less coin on a sale - £350.

Presentation Standards required 


I don't quite empathise why the webpage brief for this exhibition gives only about but non all the data you lot MUST know equally to how operate must live presented.  At acquaint data is split upward betwixt a webpage in addition to a leaflet - in addition to only about is contradictory!
  • Works delivered for choice must live exhibition-ready. If you lot don't desire your operate to live rejected because of its frame (which happens to a greater extent than oftentimes than you lot mightiness think) it's advisable to (a) review the images of operate hanging on the wall inwards yesteryear exhibitions to reckon the styles on operate which is selected in addition to (b) to usage a neutral coloured frame
  • Metal in addition to clip frames are inadmissable.  Frames or stretchers should live substantial plenty to withstand mirror plating in addition to 12mm, size half dozen screws for hanging purposes. Note "or stretchers" i.e. recognition that non all operate must live framed.  In exercise it agency gallery wrapped canvass amongst prissy edges!
  • All operate has to live submitted unwrapped in addition to no packing materials volition live stored.  The artwork goes lead from delivery to beingness stacked. If using an independent courier you lot involve to ensure that you lot brand arrangements nigh the packing material, otherwise you lot could halt upward amongst needing to retrieve a moving ikon amongst no packing material.
  • There should live no projections whatsoever from the backs of the frames to preclude impairment to other work.  This is to preclude ane frame damaging another frame patch stacked.  No liability is accepted should this plough over off in addition to artists are advised to convey out Insurance.  My advice is to brand certain you lot usage difficult rather than soft woods for your frame in addition to your frames volition rest inwards skillful shape for longer!  The actually cracking thing nigh the "no projections" dominion is you lot don't have got to recollect where you lot pose your D rings in addition to moving ikon cord!
