GUIDELINES

• All works are welcome, this is a completely multimedia exhibition. As long as the work is a stylized artwork that relates to the theme of Secrets then it a valid entry for the exhibition. Interpret this as you will, explore the concept, try coming with something fresh and exciting. Everything is valid, so go crazy.

• All works submitted to us must be done so by Friday 14th November 2008. This will allow us to edit down the entries and choose those that we feel best reflect the overall theme that we are trying to convey to the audience. Unfortunately any submissions received after this point will not be considered.

• All submissions should be sent to (submissions@secrets-exhibition.co.uk) with an email subject line of Submission for (Artist’s Name). This will allow us to track which emails belong to which artist. Also please include a very brief description of the concept of your artwork.

• Please send submissions from an email address that you use frequently. If we should need to contact you for any reason then we shall do so by email and fast responses are critical.

• All photographic work should be sent by email and be no larger than 600 pixels wide.

• All paintings, sculptures, and other 3D “constructed” art should be photographed from multiple angles and the photos should be sent by email (again no larger than 600 pixels wide please)

• All videos or photographic slideshows should be uploaded to YouTube and the direct URL link should be sent to us via the submission email.

• Once we have chosen the works that we wish to display in the exhibition we shall contact the chosen artists and ask them to submit the full-sized artwork to us within a specified time period. If we contact you and the work is not received by the date given then unfortunately we shall have to withdraw the offer of displaying your work and give it to someone as we are on a very limited timescale.

• We are very sorry to say that we cannot return work, so if you are sending a sculpture or painting then you shall need to organise return delivery. If this is an issue then please contact us for more details.

• Please be aware that copyright for all work will remain with the artist. However any work chosen to participate may well go on to promotional flyers for the exhibition, our website or a show catalogue when the work is completed. We will NOT be selling artists work for this exhibition. This is a collaborative project for people to get thier work out there in to the art scene. This is a non-profit exhibition.
