Screen print exhibition - call for entries
The theme: Power in numbers
What you need to do/
You create a ONE colour image.
You send a digital file of the image (at this stage a low-res, under 1 mb, image), that, if your submission is successful will be screenprinted in ONE colour at 500mm x 500mm on Heritage White, (a Fourdrinier made paper with a vellum surface that has a full archival specification).
Colour reference for your print can be given as a Pantone, CMYK or RGB colour. If you don’t know what these mean, don’t worry, you will be contacted by the professional print people at Cure Studio and Print Club London.
What we do/
From this artwork we will produce a screenprint of your work in an edition of 50 with an artist proof. Each print will be stamped with a custom made stamp produced especially for this show. This will act as a mark of authenticity. The screenprints will be printed by either Fred Higginson of Print Club London or James Hurst of Cure Studio.
What happens next?/
The screen prints will be shown at the Bodhi Gallery in an exhibition that will run for two weeks. The show will open with a private view on Thursday 7th of May 2009. It will continue until Sunday 23rd of May 2009.
Throughout the life of the show there will be a shop based at the gallery selling copies of the work, an eclectic series of talks and events based around the theme power in numbers and a screenprint bed that will be used for live printing demonstrations and workshops.
We will sell the screenprints. The screenprints produced for this show will be sold for £20 each. Once the gallery show has closed we will continue to sell the prints at Bodhi Gallery, on the Print Monger market stall, online and at future events.
What you get/
Aside from adulation from your friends, you will get 30% of money from the sale of your print. You will be contacted two weeks after the show has closed and paid by BACS or cheque 30% of the total sales of your work. You will be updated on a bi-monthly basis of sales made after the show has closed.
