Cinema 07: Call for Submissions
Cinema 07
Painting + Sculpture + Photography + Installation
September 16th, 2016 - November 12th, 2016
Deadline: Monday, August 29th, 11:59pm, 2016
Last year we continued our ongoing series of exhibitions designed around
cinema as a translated medium. The exhibition, Cinema 06, surpassed our
expectations in terms of quality and diversity of the submissions. It was
exciting to see how various artists incorporated cinema into their work,
whether referencing specific films, genres or cinematic process itself. After
the final selections were made, the exhibition consisted of work by 17 artists
from 8 cities in 3 countries* and was very well received by the thousands
who viewed the work in the gallery and online.
This year, we continue with Cinema 05. We look forward to another great round
of submissions.

Submission Guidelines
All pieces should reference cinema in some way. Work may reference a specific
film, director, director's body of work, film genre or movement, etc. Work
may also reference cinematic process or the visual language of cinema.
There are no specific size requirements, but anything overly large or small
(over six feet/under ten inches) may limit the appeal of the piece in the
exhibition.
The most important guideline for submissions is quality. Pieces should tilt
toward the fine art end of the spectrum. Please visit the Previous Exhibitions

and Cinema 06

should also prove to be a valuable resource.
All pieces should be ready to hang/display (no sawtooth hangers please).
Works on paper and photography should be framed behind glass or plexiglass,
unless an alternate presentation is contextual to the piece.
Email images (preferably jpgs), with dimensions, medium, title and artist's
contact information to gallery@kennethpaullesko.com. Please include "Your
Name--Cinema 07 Submission" in the subject. There are no specific
requirements concerning resolution, though anything under three megapixels
may limit the ability to enlarge details. You may enter up to five
pieces.
These guidelines are meant to be flexible. Painting, sculpture, photography
and installation will all be considered. Submissions are fairly open-ended,
if you have a piece that doesn't fall into the described parameters (a drawing
or print, etc.), but you think it works with the exhibition, send us an email.
Similarly, if you have any questions concerning subject matter, or would
like feedback on a piece, or an idea for a piece, just send us an email.
Deadline for submissions is Monday, August 29th, 11:59pm. Accepted artists
will be notified on or before August 31st. Pieces must be shipped to arrive
no later than September 12th.
