Artizan 2017 Solo Series
Deadline: 16/07/2017Venue: Artizan Gallery | City: Torquay | Region: Devon | Country: United Kingdom | Artizan Gallery
We're excited to now be taking bookings for 2017 and announce that we will be running a solo series across four spaces in two venues. We're looking for artists of all abilities to participate and welcome speculative booking forms.
Artizan has been open for nearly two and half years now, running a range of stewarded, self-stewarded, group, solo, open and mixed exhibitions. We’ve learnt a lot along the way, developed and expanded the space and built a great local and national following.
With the offer of four spaces at the gallery for 2017 including the new rear gallery at Artizan, our basement space and the addition of a second gallery on Lucius Street – The Torbay Gallery managed by owner Andy Reed – next year is going to be bigger and better and we’re trying something a little bit different; The 2017 Solo Series.
The model for the year will see the three main gallery spaces each play host to one artist providing a full showcase of their work in a solo exhibition. These solo shows will be complimented by two open exhibitions in July and December into which all artists booking solo exhibitions will be automatically entered.
We’ve decided to run this model based on the success of solo exhibitions and shows featuring a smaller number of artists and we believe it represents the best opportunity for us to support our local artists. Feedback from regular and seasonal customers has suggested that our visitors want to explore a fuller body of an artist’s work and the early success of our café gallery (where we have trialed this) has shown it to be popular. Additionally, in having a smaller number of artists in each exhibition we hope to offer more focused promotional work and provide a greater array of digital and print content to engage our audience and client base.
With the continued provision of two annual open exhibitions and the offer of new and diverse spaces to display work, 2017 promises to raise our ability to support the local artistic community. The additional development of “The Belgravia Galleries” – a collaboration between The Gallery (Kevin Cowell), The Torbay Gallery (Andrew Reed) and Artizan Gallery – Lucius Street and the Belgrave area promise to become a destination for art.
Please select one of our spaces.
The Belgravia Galleries offer three main spaces for exhibiting. If you are a photographer, there may also be additional opportunities at The Gallery, also a part of Belgravia Galleries. Please contact us directly for more information.
