OPEN CALL SHOW: POSTCARDS FROM THE ART EDGE

Okay this is a fundraiser for i-5 Gallery (a program of the Brewery Art Association, a non-profit California art charity). We are not going to make a million dollars here, but we are going to hopefully be better able to pay the electric bill at the gallery and stuff like that.

So here is the deal. Make an artwork that can be mailed in to the gallery. Send us your name, the title and the medium and we will put it on the wall. We will sell each artwork for $100 ... and you the artist will get $50 from that.

No limits on anything, just that it has to be mailed by the US POSTAL SERVICE and CANNOT be something that:
Requires assembly
Has unreasonable/overly-complicated presentation requirements
Has illegal substances on or in it.

ALSO ... If it is gross or sociopathic or we just do not like it, we (that would be Mat Gleason, president of the Brewery Art Association and Nancy Ramirez, director of the i-5 gallery) reserve the right to NOT exhibit it, but THIS IS AN EXERCISE IN DEMOCRACY not elitism or curation, so we welcome all art submissions arriving by mail. Artworks are not insured - we take professional precautions, but understand that there is no liability for damaged, lost or stolen artworks. Artwork returns require a Self-Addressed-Stamped-Envelope.

ART MUST BE POSTMARKED BY SATURDAY, AUGUST 23.

Exhibit runs August 29 thru October 18 at the i-5 Gallery in the Brewery Arts Compound

EXHIBIT OPENING RECEPTION FOR THE ARTISTS: AUGUST 30, 8 - 11 PM

Mail your art to:

Nancy Ramirez/Mat Gleason
i-5 Gallery
2100 N. Main St #A-9
Lincoln Heights, CA 90031

Press releases and advertising with participating artists names will be sent out to the local fine art media, so this is your chance to get recognition and exposure for your art. Be creative and, please, follow United States Postal guidelines.

Thank You.
