Propose an Exhibition

New Visions often books exhibitions several years ahead. 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 .JPG/.JPEG images on disc. To have your work considered a proposal should include:

• 8-10 digital images of your work in .jpg format that represent a current selection of available work. Images should be at 72 DPI and should not exceed 250 KB. Images files should be labeled with your last name, first initial and number corresponding to the number on your image list (ex. doej-01.jpg).
   
  Please note: internet connections to personal websites cannot be substituted for digital images. Images in any other format than .jpg will not be reviewed.
  
  If more than one artist is entering a joint proposal, each artist should include 8-10 digital images.
   
• Include a corresponding reference sheet listing images by number. Image list should include the image file name (ex. doej-01.jpg), artwork title, size of artwork and art medium. Example:
  doej-01.jpg Title of Artwork 24"h x 16" w, oil on canvas
  doej-02.jpg Title of Artwork 36" h x 24" w, acrylic
   
• Include a resume or biographical sketch and artist’s statement. You may also include articles, reviews, or brochures of your work.
   
• Include a self-addressed envelope with sufficient postage to return materials. Proposals may also be submitted as email attachments to newvisions.gallery@frontier.com. Only complete proposals following the guidelines above will be reviewed.

Proposals will be reviewed by New Visions’ curatorial staff and exhibition committee.

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.

Please don't request that we review your web site and get back to you. Although it sounds like fun, we don't have time and can not present this to an exhibition committee.

If you are coming to Marshfield and would like to show us your portfolio, please call ahead and make an appointment. We may not have time to view your work if you just drop in.
