International Collage Exhibition and Exchange

The 7th Bakers Dozen international collage exchange has now joined earlier exchanges on the outofsight.co.nz site.

And now....The 8th International Collage Exhibition and Exchange
Exhibiting in April 2006

A list of those artists whose collages have already arrived is HERE.

Artists each make 13 collages, size about 8" X 10" (20cm X 26cm), and send them to me in New Zealand, to arrive by 20th March, 2006.

1. One from each artist will be offered for sale at an exhibition here in New Plymouth, New Zealand with the artist setting the price.
30% commission taken.
That selling exhibition will also be on the Net on the Virtual TART site, at virtual.tart.co.nz
allowing the world-wide audience the chance to buy these collages.
If unsold, that collage will rejoin the exchange.
2. One is part of a month-long exhibition on the Virtual TART site during April, will then be exhibited May 3rd to May 27th at the Hill Country Arts Foundation in Ingram Texas, (thanks to Ken Malson for setting this up) and become part of their permanent collection, while remaining permanently on exhibition on the outofsight.co.nz Internet site.
3. One will be sent to be part of the permanent collection of the Turchin Center for the Visual Arts at Appalachian State University, Boone, NC, USA. (Thanks to Hank Foreman for this.)

The other 10 (or 11) are shared out into parcels which are sent back to each contributing artist.

So you send 13 of yours, get back 11 others (or 10 and money from your sale), and you become part of two public collections.

Interested in taking part?
Here's how it works:

Make 13 collages, on 8" X 10" (20cm X 26cm) (actual collage area can be smaller, but the 8 X 10 outer size makes packaging easier). Not bigger than A4 size.

Send :

* your collages,
* your name & address,
* email address if you've got one
* (and the URL of your own website if you've got one and want it listed)
* Mark which collage you want to offer for sale, and the price.
(Make it clear which currency you're talking about!!!!)
30% commission will be taken.
The exchange rate is such that US$100 is about NZ$140 so you might have to lower your usual prices perhaps.
* If you want to select which ones go on the Net and then to Texas, and to Boone too, that's fine
* and send $40 US or $35 Oz or $30 NZ depending on where you live (for handling, website, NZ exhibition, and return postage) Or £20 € 28 CAN$ 45. Or ¥ ... ? Rupees? Just a cheque (or check) or cash, nothing fancy like bank drafts or money orders.
