Summer Group Show at Left Bank Leeds (12-15 July) looking for diverse works exploring the theme of "movement" through different mediums.

The Movement: Summer Group Show invites artists whose work fits within the very open theme of "movement" to take part in a group exhibition at Left Bank Leeds, 12-15 July. This could include: kinetic sculpture, paintings, brushstrokes that display movement, photography that captures movement, dance, drawing, drawing machines, mark making, foot prints, tire tracks, animal tracks, political movements, bowel movements...we really are quite open!   

Selected artists will be required to install their work at the venue 9-10 July, there will be an opening event on Wednesday 12 July, 6-9pm (all welcome) and the exhibition will be open to the public 13-15 July. All artists will be required to take their work down on Sunday 16 July. For further information please see the FAQs. 

DEADLINE: 12noon Wednesday 28 June. 

Left Bank Leeds is a multidisciplinary arts venue set in an amazing grade II* listed former church building in Leeds. Our mission is to preserve our building in order to inspire and empower through a programme of arts and events that promote creativity, connection and wellbeing.

What publicity will be provided as part of the opportunity?
The marketing department at Left Bank Leeds will design and distribute printed and online marketing materials.
Do I need to be present?
Ideally the artist will be available to install and take down their own work. If this is not possible and your work is straight forward to install we may be able to install for you though this will need to be arranged on a case-by-case basis.
How do you decide on proposals?
The curatorial team will select works that explore the theme of movement, will work within the space and compliment other works chosen. If you are submitting a performance piece please be aware that it will need some form of representation if unavailable throughout the exhibition opening times, be it an instillation, film or resulting visuals from the performance.
What happens if my proposal is chosen?
You will be notified by midnight on Friday 30 June.
