apexart will accept proposals for its International Open Call from February 1 - March 1, 2023. Four winning proposals will become apexart exhibitions presented in their selected locations around the world as part of our 2023-24 exhibition season. Curators, artists, writers, and creative individuals, regardless of location or past experience, are invited to submit a proposal online.
The submission process:
Proposals of up to 500
words should describe focused, idea-driven, original group exhibitions,
and the country and city in which they are to take place. No
biographical information, CVs, links, or images will be accepted, and
proposals must be submitted in English. Jurors rate anonymous
submissions based on the idea only. See examples of winning proposals
here.
The selection process:
Rather than convene a
panel of a few art world people to review hundreds of ideas, apexart’s
crowd-sourced voting system invites hundreds of international jurors to
review proposals on their own schedule. The crowd-sourced jury is
composed of more than 600 individuals from a wide variety of
professional backgrounds and international locations—including students
from 17+ participating university classes—who will vote on the
proposals. Proposals are anonymous and randomized to make sure each
submission receives the same consideration. apexart staff does not
influence the results of the jury in any way.
The results:
The four winning proposals will each
receive an exhibition budget of up to $11,000; have an exhibition
brochure printed and mailed to over six thousand international
recipients; advertising in major and local outlets; and will be part of
apexart’s 2023-2024 exhibition season. Working closely with the apexart
team, curators will realize their original ideas into apexart
exhibitions. Exhibition curators are challenged, encouraged, and
required to work within the funding provided to transform their winning
proposals into small, focused, noteworthy exhibitions.
To submit an exhibition proposal, visit https://apexart.org/opencalls.php between February 1 and March 1, 2023.
