AREA TEN

I JUST LOOKED ON THE AREA 10 WEBSITE AND APPARENTLY:

"Area 10 has consistently attracted practitioners from a vast variety of art forms. The dimensions and special character of the varied spaces have inspired imaginative and intriguing ways of curating visual art exhibitions. Area 10 has enabled artists to display ambitious works of extremely large dimensions as well as small, intimate pieces in any medium, featured as elements of collective exhibitions or as individual projects. In order to maintain the integrity of the site’s character, Area 10 generally eschews gallery display conventions for static art pieces such as title and name tags or plinths. "

BUT IF WE STILL WANT TO GIVE IT A GO WE NEED TO FILL OUT ONE OF THESE AND GET AN INTERVIEW WITH THEM...


Exhibition proposals Procedure for proposing exhibitions and visual arts projects Artists and curators are invited to make proposals to A10PS. The general procedure is to first view the space and then submit a written proposal about the work you would like to carry out.

You will need to include the following information for us to identify what your requirements may be:
Spatial requirements - Which space would you like to use (presuming you have been to A10PS) to develop and/or present your project? Please estimate the size of works included for an overview of your spatial needs.
What kind of materials would you be likely to use? What are your technical requirements?
Exhibiting opportunity - Do you want your project to be part of an Area 10 Project Space exhibition or event or present it individually? How many artists are involved? Is the project being developed or commissioned for somewhere else?
Do you require a place to store materials, equipment, other?
Do you have documentation of your work?
Time requirements - how long would your project take to develop if it is not a collaboration for an Area 10 event? Would you need access to the space every day, evenings or/and weekends?

EVEN IF WE DON'T WANT TO DO THIS - I THINK THOSE ARE REALLY GOOD GUIDELINES TO SET FOR OURSELVES ANY WAY (WICH WE HAVE PRETTY MUCH COVERED ALREADY)

WE COULD MAYBE PUT THIS IN THE PROPOSAL AS SOMETHING WE ARE CONSIDERING??
