Exhibition Details
Selections: 12 pieces will be chosen by the juror to be for the in-person exhibition at zoneFIVE, in Colorado Springs. In addition, 12 more artworks will be chosen by the juror to be displayed in the online gallery.
Everyone who submits images will be notified by email of the juror’s selections. Notification will be sent in the second week of March.
Selected artists will have the option of having their work for sale (this is not required for participation). Any sale will be split 70/30 with the artist retaining 70% of the retail price.
Framing: To reduce artist's costs Radiant Aberration offers optional in-house printing and framing. The deadline for in-house framing and/or printing is --.
Selected artwork may also be shipped by the artist. These pieces must be matted and framed in a simple black frame and be no larger than 24 inches on the longest side. Artists whose work is displayed in an alternative format may work with the gallery to determine an appropriate presentation. Local artists may arrange a drop-off time. Shipped artwork will need to arrive at zoneFIVE Studios between March 24-31. Artists will be responsible for the return shipping of their artwork.
