Gallery 924 at the Arts Council Seeks Work for TINY III
Gallery 924 is seeking submissions (existing or proposed) from central Indiana artists for the third annual BIG GROUP SHOW: Tiny III. The goal is to feature as many artists as possible offering the widest array of options for holiday shoppers to start a tiny collection of art for themselves or as gifts.
Artists working in all styles and media are welcome – the only similarity will be size. All work should be “tiny”….or no greater than six inches in any direction. (max. size is 6” x 6” x 6”, there is no minimum size). Tiny should not be confused with a more traditional “miniatures” show. Artists who create miniature works are welcome to submit, but this show is more about the element of surprise, experiment, interaction, and whimsy! Therefore, site-specific TINY installations are sought as well as multiples such as clay molds or various printmaking techniques. Artists have two options to submit:
1) Existing Work: Submit up to 10 images. (2D, 3D, installation, etc.)
OR
2) Create site-specific work!: Come to Gallery 924, choose a location within the gallery and propose a site-specific piece for the show. Your location may be just about anywhere in the gallery – ceiling, floor, walls, brick, windows, etc. Gallery 924 is known for its unique architectural elements (e.g. wood beams, brick walls, large windows, etc.) If the work can be installed without permanently damaging the structure and only take up a 6” x 6” x 6” space, it is acceptable. When you come in to pick your spot, take a photo of the location you want for your piece and send in the photo along with the sketch/design of your proposed piece (bonus points for those Photoshop-savvy artists who can super-impose your sketch onto the gallery photo and really make us see it!) We can’t promise if your piece is selected that you will get the spot you ask for, but we will do our best to make it happen.
The group exhibition will be chosen by an internal selection committee and curated and installed by the Gallery 924 staff. The show will open with a public celebration during the IDADA First Friday Art Tour on Friday, December 5 and remain up until Friday, January 2, 2015. The gallery will be closed New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day (12/31/14 – 1/1/15).
Work will be selected based on the quality of the work, how well it fits within the larger group show, and the relevance to the theme of the show: Tiny. Work must have been completed within the last three years. If 2D, work must be framed (if appropriate), wired and ready to hang.
All central Indiana artists over the age of 18 are welcome to submit. For these purposes, central Indiana is considered to be Marion and the seven surrounding counties.
Work must be delivered November 30 or December 1 (Sunday or Monday with specific times TBD) and if not sold must be picked up during the week of January 5, 2015. Artists are encouraged to attend the opening, but not required. Artwork will be insured by the gallery for the entirety of the time it is in the gallery.
To submit, please email the following to gallery924@indyarts.org:
- Up to 10 (ten) images
- Images should be 72dpi and around 800 pixels in any direction (or of a file size less than 1MB each)
- Note that files created for national submission sites (CAFÉ, Slideroom, etc.) are acceptable, just please make sure you do not send multiple large files via e-mail as we may not receive them.
- Note that if you do not receive an e-mail confirming your submission within 2 days excluding weekends, please contact us as we may not have received it.
- Image list with title, date, medium, dimensions* and price**, (list any special installation requirements on image list as well – e.g. needs electricity, comes with own plinth, etc.)
Deadline: Monday, November 10 at 5pm
NOTE: If you are proposing a site-specific installation and need more time to complete it, you should submit your proposal as quickly as possible. We will do our best to get a final answer to you quickly.
**Please note that Gallery 924 takes a 25% commission on all artwork sold in the gallery; however, artists should keep their prices at a consistent level based upon previous sales, not commission rates. When pricing your work for this particular show, keep in mind that Be Indypendent.org will be promoting the show as a great place to buy unique, indypendent holiday gifts, so a price range at or below $100 would be most appropriate, but certainly not required.

- PAID INTERNSHIP – Hirons & Company – Says the Executive Creative Director: The student we pick has to be able to hit the ground running and will basically be a functioning member of the creative department. They will, for the most part, be doing production and the prepping of files for printers. That said, I also like to give our interns some graphic design opportunities as well to keep their young minds interested. The learning part of the internship will come from working on real assignment with real clients. Send resume and portfolios to is Cathy Holdman. Her email is choldman@hirons.com.
