3d Art Submission

The Galt Museum & Archives invites artists in Southwestern Alberta* to submit a 3-dimensional art piece for consideration in the Galt Museum’s Art Walk Sculpture Show Friday, September 25 to Sunday, September 27, 2015.

A photograph or conceptual drawing of one or two pieces (maximum of two pieces), along with an artist’s statement (200 words maximum), label information (title, date, media, artist’s name as it will be printed on the label), unique display considerations, and the estimated value of the piece must be submitted by Friday, September 4, Wed., Sept. 9, 2015 at 5 pm to:

Wendy Aitkens, Curator

Artwork to be considered will be:

  • 3 dimensional
  • Any media and multi media
  • Ready to hang or display
  • Stable and secure to hang or display
  • Maximum height: 8’
  • Maximum width or diameter: 3’

The Galt has a limited supply of plinths of varying heights and sizes. Please indicate whether you will provide your own plinth or will require one, and if so, the ideal size. We will do our best to accommodate your request should your work be selected. The Galt will make every effort to display the chosen art to its best advantage within the limitations of the available time and resources.

The show will be open to the public Friday and Saturday from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm and Sunday from 1:00 to 5:00 pm.

Successful artists will be notified by email or phone during the week of September 7 to 11 and will drop off their work at the Galt Museum Monday, September 21 to Wednesday, September 23, between 10:00 am and 4:30 pm.  Wendy Aitkens will contact artists with large pieces to make alternative arrangements.

Artists will pick up their works on Sunday, September 27 after a private wine and cheese closing event which will be held between 4 and 5 pm. Art may also be picked up the following week.

Artist demonstrations involving the creation of 3-dimensional art will occur during the Friday, Saturday and Sunday in the main hallway or rooms adjacent to the gallery. If you are interested in demonstrating your art and have a reasonably clean art form please contact Wendy Aitkens at the email above or call 403-320-3907 by September 5, 2015.
