With a hopeful end to lockdown announced, Artizan Collective CIC is excited to host a virtual exhibition for what we hope will be the last full month that our doors are closed. For the whole of March, we’ll be hosting an entirely online, exhibition of affordable works; The Virtual Artist Support Pledge Exhibition. This exhibition will build on the work we started in December 2020 as part of our Winter Open Exhibition as well as the global #ArtistSupportPledge movement, bringing together a whopping selection of nearly 1000 works under £200, in an evolving virtual showcase. All the while, we will also be taking new submissions to the collection in what will be our biggest ever exhibition of work.
More About the Artist Support Pledge
ARTIST SUPPORT PLEDGE is a culture and economy in support of artists and makers established in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The project uses Instagram and creatives can post their images using #artistsupportpledge giving details of their works and price (no more than £200 or equivalent). If people are interested in buying, they message the artist. Anyone can buy the work and artists don’t need permission to join.
Every time an artist reaches £1,000 of sales, they pledge to buy £200 of work from other artist(s).
We're supporting our artists by working with #artistsupportpledge and promoting exhibited works under £200. Starting with our English Riviera Winter Open Exhibition, we'll regularly share posts from the show with #artistsupportpledge and every time we reach £1000 worth of sales, we'll reinvest and purchase work from one of our artists.
The Exhibition
The Virtual Artist Support Pledge Exhibition will run on our website as a curated exhibition page. We’ll be doing regular features on different themes, media, and artists over the course of the month, giving a unique insight into a collection of affordable works. All pieces will be available to purchase and all income will be added to our #artistsupportpledge contributions which feed back to and support our community of talented artists.
The exhibition will launch online on March 5th and will run until at least March 31st.
Artists can submit work using the simple form here (https://forms.gle/BU3tv9hHKUr8BjRp7) and we will aim to confirm listings within two working days.
