Since the major survey show Women Artists of the DMV was announced here, I have received nearly 3,000 inquiries, and many, many, many questions... so here are some common clarifications:
- There are NO fees
- Agreements will be between the chosen venue and the artist
- Artists will be responsible for delivering artwork to the chosen venue
- Artists will be responsible for picking up artwork at the end of the exhibition(s)
- Artwork CAN be for sale except for those chosen to hang at the Katzen
- One work per artist
- There are (so far) 4 venues
- Katzen Art Museum at American University
- The Athenaeum in Alexandria
- Artists & Makers Galleries in Rockville
- The Galleries at Strathmore in Rockville
- I will decide which exhibiting/selected artist hangs at which venue
- I am working to attempt to document ALL artists who submit in this way:
- About 200 or so of the 3,000 (so far) submissions will be selected to exhibit physically at one of the four venues - if I can add another space, then more artists will be chosen.
- The rest of the set of ALL other artists will be documented and (providing the Smithsonian accepts my proposal) archived as a snapshot in time for DMV women artists at the Smithsonian Archives.
- ALL the artists will have their name and one piece of art projected onto the wall of the Katzen Museum at American University during the period of the exhibition.
