Hello Wilson Alumni!
I hope everyone is safe and doing well during this trying time. To stay within guidelines and ensure everyones safety, Grandview Gallery will host virtual exhibits the rest of this school year. I’d like to invite any interested Wilson Alumni to submit one piece of art for our virtual exhibit “Near & Far”! We love our Alumni artists and we want to proudly exhibit what everyone is creating. ALL skill levels and ALL mediums are welcome. It doesn't matter to us wether you're a working professional or a hobbyist. Let's show everyone where art has taken you! Everyone's journey is very different yet similar and I'm interested in where those intersections occur. There is one small bit of homework. Please write a few sentences about the piece or where art has taken you. These few sentences will be exhibited along with the work.
Only one piece of art per Alumni. A second photo of the work may be included to see its function or it's environment. For example, a wearable work, a statue, the product the art was on/in, etc. Just like with all of our exhibits we’ll have an opening weekend. Then during the run of the exhibit, each week we'll showcase one or more (depending on the number of participants) artists individually online with the work and the statement.
Please send ALL of the following information and image/images to grandviewgallery@share.wilsonsd.org:
- First and last name (you may include a maiden name if you wish).
- Your graduation year.
- Name of artwork.
- Medium
- Year the artwork was created.
- Price, or NFS.
- If the artwork is client based, who was it for?
- The company you do art for (if allowed). Or your personal website or social media you'd like advertised (please include usernames and which social media they go to).
- Your few sentence Artist Statement (not required).
Important Dates:
- 2/14/21: Submission ends at midnight.
- 3/5/21: Opening weekend.
- 3/5/21-5/21/21: Exhibit open.
Important Information:
- Our Loan Agreement must be signed even if you choose to not sell the work. Selling the work is optional. The Loan Agreement will be sent to you shortly after approval. Please send it back ASAP.
- Should your work sell, Wilson School District and Grandview Gallery are not responsible for shipping costs. Please factor shipping into your pricing.
- Sine we are part of a school district the artwork can not contain full nudity. Tastefully covered partial nudity could be accepted but must be reviewed first.
- Please provide a good picture/scan of the work. Make sure its clear, focused, well lit, etc. The picture/scan may include the frame if you’d like.
- Please label your art file as the following example so I know who it belongs to. Since we’re working online please make the file a .jpg. It’s the most universal and easiest to work with online. File example... firstnamelastname_title.jpg
- As mentioned above, if you’d like to include a second optional picture of you with the work, or the work in its environment, or on a model, etc, that is welcomed too but we do require one file that is ONLY the art. Just be sure the other person in the picture is ok with being shown. Grandview Gallery accepts no responsibility to follow up with said person. It is assumed the submitting artist has that persons permission. Please label that picture in following example… firstnamelastname_title2.jpg
- At this time space is limited to 30 Alumni. First come, first served. First come, first served meaning ALL information/images are submitted and approved. If we go over 30, we will consider other options with the Alumni who submitted after 30.
Please feel free to pass this along to any Alumni you can think of. I know many of you are VERY talented and I look forward to working with you. Any questions, or to submit all the required information and files email grandviewgallery@share.wilsonsd.org. Thank you for your time and consideration.
