All performance artists, video artists, and artists who work with ephemeral materials are invited to turn in proposals for ROY G BIV Gallery's Time-Sensitive exhibition at the OSU Urban Arts Space. The deadline is this Saturday, August 28th, but don't worry - you can email your entry materials to entries@roygbivgallery.org!
Entry Requirements
We are accepting images of and/or proposals for single artworks, installations, and performances that deal with the idea of the ephemeral.
For consideration, the artist must submit four to six jpeg images 1MB or larger in size that are labeled with last name and slide number (ex. smith01.jpg).
Each set of jpegs must be accompanied by an image list containing the fol- lowing information for each submitted image: number, title of work, date of work, medium. The image list must be in .doc or PDF format labeled with last name (ex. smithimagelist.doc).
Artists may submit up to 2 videos. Videos must be submitted in Quicktime (.mov) format with 740 X 480 aspect ratio for widescreen or 640 X 480 for fullscreen. The first two minutes of each video will be reviewed. Videos should not exceed a playing time of 10 minutes per video.
Submissions must include an artist statement and a resume in PDF or .doc format, labeled with last name (ex. smithstatement.doc).
Artworks incorporating 2-D and 3-D elements must be made of ephemeral material. Such material is impermanent, non-archival, and/or constantly changing in time.
Due to health concerns, artworks comprised of materials that attract insects and vermin cannot be exhibited. Materials must not be hazardous for indoor display, as all artworks will be displayed within the Urban Arts Space Lower Gallery.
Due to the nature of ephemeral materials, artworks in the exhibition will not be insured by The Ohio State University Urban Arts Space.
Please send all application materials to entries@roygbivgallery.org with the subject header: “TIME-SENSITIVE - URBAN ARTS SPACE†by Saturday, August 28, 2010.
No other supplemental materials will be taken into consideration during the jury process.
Incomplete applications will not be considered. Images of selected artwork will be retained for exhibition promotion use.
