Procedure for
applying for an exhibition at the KZNSA Gallery
The KZNSA has a selection committee, elected by KZNSA Council, that
meets to review works submitted for possible exhibition at the gallery.
The selection committee reviews applications that are submitted within
the open call dates: May 1 to July 30, 2019.
Group or Solo Exhibitions are welcome. Curators are encouraged to apply,
as are galleries or other art institutions.
If your work is selected, the selection committee will try to
accommodate your preferred date and space. Due to the high number of
applications, we may not be able to accommodate every applicant’s preferences,
in which case we will allocate (a) gallery space(s) and exhibition date(s). You
are welcome to accept these or not.
Works submitted after the deadline will not be reviewed. The selection
committee’s decision is based on a majority vote and is final. Feedback
regarding acceptance or rejection of your proposal is given at the Director’s
discretion.
Should your proposal for an exhibition be successful, a contract between
you and the KZNSA will be drawn up concerning this exhibition and you will be
sent to sign.
Successful applications will be announced no later than September 30,
2019.
