Deviant Artists are invited to supply images for poster exhibit in ÖREBRO, Sweden.

SUBMISSION DEADLINE FOR PRESELECTION 24th APRIL

Impressed with the high quality of artworks exhibited in The (deviant) Art Festival 2007, KONSTHALLEN Gallery in ÖREBRO are now working on a grand scale project called Art Open Örebro, and are exclusively inviting Deviant Artists to supply the artworks for a poster exhibit.
Art Open Örebro, the exhibition will be on June 5 - August 17 this year. This event has many well known artists and different aspects of how and what type of work they are presenting.
As a part of the Art Open Örebro exhibition they will print big scale outdoor-posters of artworks and put these up on building walls in the central city of Örebro.

We are keen to make this collaboration happen but are relying on you to submit to us images and image proposals for consideration. The deadline is VERY tight.

What's in it for you:

-Each artist who gets an image selected for a poster will get 200-pounds.
AND gets to keep the poster after it has been exhibited in Sweden.
-The image (or images) you submit can be anything. Drawing, painting,
film still, photo art, performance documentation, collage etc.
-The posters will be between the size of 2x3 meters up to 15x10m

CONTEXT:
There is no medium limitations (for the image) and we can be controversial.
(Keep in mind thou, "controversial" doesn't mean the same to everyone,
personally i got the feeling that they are looking for some sort of twist,
or "quirkiness" that they thought us "deviants" represent).

-The selection process and the decision made by The (deviant) Art Festival and Art Open Örebro curators are final.

Pls submit the following before 24th April. Thursday next week!
(Submission does not guarantee participation)

1. Send an existing image (or several) to this mail: only2fred@gmail.com

(for now the proposed image you send does not have to be good enough for print, i.e. not high res)

2. You can submit a 'proposal' / sketch of an image you would like to make for the poster exhibit.

(Try to explain the finished piece by sketch or text if you want. ARTY-STATEMENTS IS NOT ASKED FOR, we only want to understand the physical form of your proposed image)

POSSIBLE ADVICE IF YOU WANT TO USE EXISTING IMAGE/ART WORK THAT DOESNT
HOLD THESE MEASURES?
It could be possible if you use a good enough scanner to scale the image up and get better resolution if original has good quality.
