Rua Red is pleased to announce an open call for our annual open exhibition of fine and applied arts.
SUBMISSIONS CLOSED
Submissions may be in any discipline: painting, sculpture, new media, digital, printmaking, ceramics, glass, photography, installation, and jewellery.
This open submission is an opportunity for graduates, emerging and established Artists living in Ireland (including the North of Ireland) to exhibit their work in Gallery 1. The overall winner of the Rua Red Art Prize will be awarded a solo show in Gallery 2 at some point during the ensuing 12-month period.
Rua Red has a policy of supporting artists at all stages of their careers. One of the new ways that Rua Red will implement this policy will be to select and purchase works from the Winter Open and Café Wall exhibition to form a collection for the organisation. The works will go on show within the building on a rotational basis in the Conference and Meeting Room areas.
All works submitted for the exhibition are considered by a Selection Panel.
Rua Red is an equal opportunities organisation providing access to exhibitions, arts, and education programmes without regard to age, race, colour, national origin, gender, religion, sexual orientation, political affiliation, or disability.
If you require more information or guidance on completing a submission please contact info@ruared.ie or call us at (0) 451 5860.
