We run approximately 6 exhibitions per year and are always interested to see new artist submissions for these. We work with a range of new emerging and established artists at various stages of their careers and we are always open to ideas for exhibitions and to be sent new work. Outside of our open calls, artists are invited to email Exhibitions Manager Emma Donovan at artgallerynorth@gmail.com with details about their work, practice and accompanying images.
Sign up to our mailing list by emailing artgallerynorth@gmail.com to find out about our next events and exhibitions.
CURRENT ARTIST OPPORTUNITIES
PAPERING OVER THE CRACKS: 26.09 – 17.10
An expressive exhibition of drawing, paper-based mediums and works on paper that both celebrates and elevates the drawn line and use of paper as medium.
Gallery North would like to invite entries from artists working in any medium who are creating work or have existing work that responds to this theme. We are particularly interested in artists that focus on drawing as a key principle of their work. Additionally, those that work across paper-based mediums (2d and 3d) as well as print-making, assemblage, graphic arts, textile arts and photography.
Sketchbooks will form a key display in this exhibition – artists willing to share their sketchbooks and works in progress for display purposes are very welcome.
