New Visions Gallery

Deadline: Unspecified


New Visions Gallery is accepting proposals for 2008-2009. We are always interested in seeing the work of new artists. Artists may submit proposals as individuals, as a group, or several artists may submit a joint proposal such as an exhibit including their work organized around a unifying theme. Original works in all media are considered. We mount very few one-person exhibits. Curatorial staff may group your work with other artists working in compatible themes or styles.

Work considered for exhibit will be previewed by the exhibition committee. Therefore it is best to submit slides.

In general, New Visions pays for exhibit costs such as printing, mailings, receptions, programs, and insurance while in our care. The artist is responsible for incoming shipping, the gallery outgoing shipping. Hand delivered work must also be picked up unless shipping materials are provided.

2) Artists are responsible for installing and dismantling their exhibits

PROPOSAL GUIDELINES (introduction):

Individual artists and curators are encouraged to submit proposals for work consistent with the Art League Houston mission and vision. Since 2005 we have offered a $1,500 honorarium for exhibits in the main gallery to help artists and curators offset material and production costs of creating and showing new work.

Click here (http://www.artleaguehouston.org/documents/CALLFORPROPOSALS.doc) for a printer friendly version of Proposal Guidelines

Guidelines for Independent Curator Proposals

The Independent Curator Proposal Opportunity is for the development and presentation of original and previously unexhibited shows. Proposals should clearly articulate the proposed exhibit concept and format. For the purposes of this call, an installation proposal by an individual artist will be considered under the Independent Curator Proposal Opportunity.
