EXHIBITION / CRYPT / MON 21ST NOVEMBER - MONDAY 28TH NOVEMBER

SETTING UP THE EXHIBITION

The dates above includes time to set up the exhibition and take it down. So we could set up on the first Monday and take it down on the last Monday. Of course taking down is considerably quicker than setting up.

I will be around all day on the Monday to set up the exhibition. If you are available on this date (Mon 21st Nov) your help would be greatly appreciated.

THE CRYPT GALLERY

Please have a look at the Crypt website - on there you will get an idea of the space we have, the picture hanging system they have and the various way that others have used the space for previous exhibitions.

THINGS TO CONSIDER:

 

WHICH ARTWORKS 

I hope to confirm with all, the week before half term, what their artworks will be for the exhibition and what size. This will also allow you/us to prepare the frames/mounts etc in good time.

FRAMING OPTIONS

  • Seawhites - I can get very good prices for these - see right of page

  • Seawhites frames - see righthand column 

MOUNTS

Fotobox in Seaford will make mounts to the correct size. They will cut to size but as an idea of cost an A3 mount would be £6.50 and an A2 mount would be £11.

Frames from the The Range come with mounts so worth looking at these.

If you have Giclee prints you can include a surround area on the print instead of having a separate mount - ask Mike for clarification on this.

PRINTING 

Giclee prints can be prepared here printed at Harwood Printmakers https://www.harwoodking.eu/

DISPLAY OF ADDITIONAL SKETCHBOOK WORK

My initial idea would be to use treasury tags to keep artworks together so we don't have to put the work in without plastic sleeves. But this is your individual choice - happy to advise.

IDEAS AND PLANS

Exhibition name

The exhibition will be called - Brasspoint School of Visual Arts - AUTUMN EXHIBITION 

Poster and leaflets

I will produce a poster for the exhibition that I will also runout as a leaflet. I will put one of my own artworks on the poster if that's OK with everyone, it could be any of the workshop artists' work but I wouldn't know how to choose one, so one of mine seems like the best option.

I will produce enough leaflets for all to hand out

  • The private view will be on Tuesday 22nd November

  • Opening times during the week is up to us - my suggestion is 11am - 5pm on weekdays and 10am - 6pm on Saturday and Sunday - we can discuss this
