Brenda May Gallery: Small

Deadline: April 26, 2013 (RECEIVE)


Small
Brenda May Gallery
Waterloo NSW Australia
July 2013


Brenda May Gallery is currently accepting proposals from professional practising artists in Australia and New Zealand for the following group exhibition scheduled for 2013.

‘Small’ - July 2013
Being small is often defined in the negative sense - not big, not usual, not imporant. For this show we have asked artists who are familiar with working on a small-scale to contribute works that defy this notion. In addition to those who are more comfortable working on a larger scale have been challenged to produce something which fits this category but is not in any way a diminutive correlate of their larger works.

Please post submissions directly to the gallery (email submissions and proposals sent via registered post will not be accepted).

Submissions must include a CD of recent work, an up to date CV and a one page written proposal outlining which exhibition you are submitting for and the nature of the
work you are proposing. Please no powerpoint or keynote files.
