ʻFuture Imperfect: Exploring the future from the pastʼ will explore the way people have historically imagined our present. We are seeking aspiring and semi professional Australian artists to examine this theme in a tight body of work. In order to be considered, please submit 2-3 low resolution images of your current work that best represents you.
For successful applicants, the Natcon50 art show will provide an attractive space to display your works of art to members of Natcon50 and the general public at no cost. The exhibition will be promoted widely, and will provide you with the opportunity to sell your works. Natcon50 will collect a 10% commission on the sale of each item.
Submissions are invited for artists working in any media. Due to the exhibition space preference will be given to two dimensional pieces, however three dimensional works of art or other media will be considered.
Please send all queries and responses to the attention of Kate. We are looking to get expressions of interest by 10 April 2010. This doesn’t mean we expect you to have your ideas ready now. As this is a semi-professional art show, we expect that you will need to know that you have been selected to participate in order to provide you with plenty of time to plan and create your works. This timeframe is also necessary to assist the committee with funding applications and marketing.
Future Imperfect will run in addition to the fan art show that happens every year; details about that will be available next year.
If you have any questions about Future Imperfect or about anything relating to Swancon Thirty Six | Natcon Fifty, please don’t hesitate to send an email to thirtysix@swancon.com.au and we’ll get back to you promptly with a response.
