Apexart: Call Exhibition Proposals

Online / remote

Open for:
Individuals / Organisations & Collectives Artists, Curators, Producers & Managers Visual Arts & Design

New York-based gallery apexart has launched an open call for artists, curators, and other professionals who want to turn their idea into an apexart exhibition.

apexart invites their international community to collectively determine their programming through an online jury process. Winning proposals become part of apexart’s next exhibition season and receive funding and staff support. All exhibitions are part of apexart’s programming.

Anyone, from anywhere can submit. Creative people who have interesting exhibition ideas, trained and student curators, artists, writers, and creative individuals, regardless of experience level, background, or location can apply.

apexart covers costs for approved insurance, advertising, publicity, the design, printing, and mailing of the exhibition brochure, and the local opening reception. apexart oversees and handles most of the exhibition logistics, including loan agreements and shipping. The apexart team works closely with guest curators/organisers to turn their ideas into apexart exhibitions.

apexart offers 10,000 USD for each Open Call exhibition and related programming. Each curator/organiser must work within apexart’s budget to cover expenses including curator travel, artwork shipping, artist and public program participant honorariums, equipment, and installation with 8,000 USD of the budget. Of the 10,000 USD, the curator/organiser receives up to a 2,000 USD honorarium for coordinating the project and writing the exhibition brochure essay.

For exhibitions outside NYC, apexart will match up to 1,000 USD for a location rental if necessary.
