HEREart Call for Submissions

HEREart provides emerging and early career visual artists and curators access to space at an active, well-located multi-arts center. We are interested in exhibitions that creatively work with our unique spaces and engage audiences with artwork that is specially curated to function within a busy environment. This focus on interactive space naturally leads HEREart to function as the center of a community of artists. HERE is a very appropriate place for today’s active and interactive visual art: art that often moves, makes noise, and physically engages the viewer. HEREart seeks to snag these passers-by and engage them in a dialogue with the space in which we move. HEREart is invested in supporting artworks of all media and various content (painting, sculpture, photography,drawing, collage, media) , but we concentrate on new work that in some way addresses the special conditions of our space.

HEREart presents 6 exhibitions annually, curated by guest curators. Exhibitions will take place between May 2015 - February 2016 and include curator-driven collaborations between artists, as well as large-scale initiatives by solo artists.

HEREArt will provide one art installer for one day and a $400 budget (which must include shipping and transportation costs). We will also cover the costs to promote the show via our website, dedicated e-blasts, press release, and postcards (all of which HERE will design). Lastly, we will host an opening reception with wine.

Applications DUE Monday, November 10, 2014 by 12:00 noon. Artist selections will be announced by December 10, 2014.
