Submission Information

Gallery Mission
Conrad Wilde Gallery supports emerging and established artists, collectors, and public audiences by providing a venue for the access, celebration, and advancement of contemporary art.

Curatorial Emphasis
The gallery features a collection of contemporary paintings, sculpture and works on paper with a curatorial emphasis on both abstraction and innovative techniques. Work outside of this niche will be considered on a more limited basis.

Criteria
All work represented by the gallery is juried for appropriateness based upon: quality, subject matter, critical relevance, price, marketability, professionalism and an artist’s career development with relation to the particular needs of the gallery at a given time.

Non-Discrimination
It is the gallery’s policy not to discriminate on any basis other than the selection criteria described above. Occasionally the gallery will solicit works from specific community groups that are under-represented or marginalized in mainstream culture. We do this in order to offer exhibitions to as diverse a group of artists as possible while supporting the gallery’s curatorial mission.

Submission Instructions
Include images of recent, available work on slides or CD Rom (jpeg 300dpi)
Include slide list identifying all images. Indicate: Artist Name, Date, Title, Medium, and Price.
Include Artist Statement and Resume (not to exceed 3 total pages).
Complete submission packages should be delivered or mailed to the gallery at the address at the footer of the page.

Submission Guidelines
Under no circumstances will the gallery accept walk-in appointments, give live portfolio reviews, or accept original artworks during the initial submission review process. At the gallery’s discretion, a secondary review process may involve a studio visit or portfolio review (by appointment) after the gallery has reviewed the complete submission package.

Resubmission
Due to scheduling limitations, it is not possible to accept all suitable works submitted. Artists whose works are declined are invited to resubmit after one calendar year. Artists accepted after resubmitting are given scheduling preference over artists who are accepted after applying for the first time.


Request for Proposals

Conrad Wilde Gallery is reviewing proposals from professional artists to teach guest workshops in our studio during the 2008-2009 season and have expanded our program. We currently offer 5-hour encaustic classes at the Beginning, Advanced Beginning and Intermediate level, and are expanding our program to offer 3D and special topic classes. Last year, more than 50 individuals enrolled in our classes, including our Encaustic Master Class with Joanne Mattera.

We are seeking experienced and innovative artists to teach a range of “special topic” technique classes such as collage, monotype, professional practices, etc. Proposals may include encaustic, mixed media, and mediums other than encaustic in scope.
