21st Annual Juried Student Art Exhibition

FGCU JURIED STUDENT ART EXHIBITION ENTRY GUIDELINES 2019

 All entries must have been created during the time you have been enrolled at FGCU.

All entries must be exhibition ready; i.e., ready to hang or place on pedestals. You may submit up to 6 pieces of work.

Paintings, works in frames, etc., all must have d-rings or be wired. If you have a particularly heavy piece, you are advised to use d-rings.

All works on paper will be hung using clips and plexiglass, which the gallery will supply. However, all work must be matted and backed using white mat board. All work must be of even dimensions (8 x 10 rather than 8.15 x 7.24). Framing of works on paper protects your work and is greatly encouraged.

 

Standard sizes that the gallery can accommodate for glazing your works on paper for exhibition:

4 x 6                12 x 16            5 x 7                16 x 20          

8 x 10              20 x 24            9 x 12             24 x 30

11 x 14            22 x 28          30 x 40 (this is the largest we can accommodate)

 

All work will have identification written on the back or bottom of the piece, AND printing on a piece of paper and affixed in such a way that it will not fall off at any time. The information must be printed from a word processing document. Below is the format to follow:

Your name

Title of Work

Year work was completed

Medium

Price of work if for sale (Mark NFS if it is Not For Sale)

Entry Number (found on the NCR sheet, top right corner)

Works on paper must be measured and size written on submission form and identification on your piece. 

• Works submitted that do not adhere to these directions will not be included in the jurying process.
• Please bring your submissions in all at the same time, with your paperwork completed.

WORKS SOLD DURING THE EXHIBITION

Artists exhibiting work are responsible for any works sold during the exhibition. The FGCU Art Gallery will facilitate communication between potential buyers and the artist. The arrangement for payment to the artist and delivery to the buyer is the sole responsibility of the artist. The FGCU Art Gallery takes no fee in the sale of work and takes no responsibility for the exchange between buyer and the artist. All works must stay in the exhibition regardless of a sale. Artists may release the work to a buyer no sooner than April 5, 2019.

Congratulations to everyone who participated in this jury process. Our three judges deliberated quite long and held to their collective vision for the 21^st Annual Juried Student Exhibition. We are grateful to them for their expertise.

While jury results are both exciting and disappointing to participants, the process is critical to development as an artist and provides a learning opportunity for the artist. We all appreciate that you have opened yourselves up to growth and encourage you to submit works to additional exhibitions outside the university.

 

 For works ACCEPTED, the gallery will keep them
