Quay Arts are running an open exhibition later in the year and inviting artists from around the Island to submit their work for consideration.
The theme of the exhibition is ‘Location’: Site, place, position, spot, setting, scene.
The selectors will be looking for works that have a contemporary feel, which reflect contemporary themes and concerns, as well as works that are produced using traditional themes and methods.
The selection panel is made from David Firmstone MBE Vice president of Royal Watercolour Society and board member of Quay Arts, Mick Smith, who is of course the current Director of Quay Arts, Sally Taylor, Lecturer in Fine Art and previous Michael West Exhibitor at Quay Arts and lastly Jo Hummel-Newell RCA, who organises all the exhibitions at Quay Arts.
If you get through to the Open08 exhibition you may then be chosen for the prize of winning a solo exhibition at Quay Arts which will include input, mentoring and full marketing support.
Sounds like a great deal, so if you’re interested check their website for more info.
You’ll need to submit your artwork by 22 August 2008 to take part.
