ARTIST CALL for Black at Cultivate...

Busy pulling together a rather black group show for February today, well actually, the call went out a few weeks ago and space is filling up fast. We are being picky though, it does have to be right for the feel of our room at Cultivate and is does have to flow as a whole with the rest of the work in the space. Here's the call...


ARTIST CALL... "BLACK" February First Thursday @ Cultivate Vyner Street

A call to invite artists who would like to be part of ...a group show called BLACK. Black will happen at Cultivate Vyner street during the first two weeks of February. The show will open on First Thursday February 2nd and run until February 14th

We shall say no more than the subject is BLACK, you can interpret that in any way you wish, it is deliberately deliciously vague and open to all kinds of colourful possibilities.

Artists, creatives, makers, do'ers, blackhearts and everyone who want to be involved, all you have ot do is simply submit a j.peg of any piece you wish to be considered for the Black show, along with a link ot your website, Facebook page or somewhere we can find out more about you. We have no other criteria other than "Black", we'll pick our way carefully through all the submissions, we'll say a positive "yes" to those pieces/people we feel fit the space and fit in with what we've already gathered, we'll reply with a polite "no" to the things we don't think quite right this time (and await your angry replies when we do say no - we are picky and it does have to feel right).

We don't charge a submission fee (we really don't hold with that idea), however if we do say yes and invite you to be involved, we will ask you to make a small contribution of £30 to help cover the costs of putting on the show, the gallery rent, publicity and such. We're open and upfront about this, we're artists doing all this ourselves and the contribution is about helping to cover costs and keeping this space open so we can present art on our terms, cultivate things while you get to show some art right in the middle of Vyner Street and First Thursday.

Image submissions, size of piece, medium and website links and a short hello to info@cultivatevynerstreet.com - we don't need any long artist statements or such, just an image of a proposed piece, the size, the medium and a link to a website so we can see a little more about you...
