GOTHENBURG ENGLISH STUDIO THEATRE

Apply for the Open Call!

To accompany our production of A hundred words for snow, GEST will present an exhibition of 100 artworks in the foyer gallery entitled A Hundred worKs For Snow!

 

The art exhibition will in some way reflect the setting and environment of the play. It’s up to the artist to represent what this means for them. Focus could be the wintery landscape of the north pole with details such as Northern lights, snowflakes, tundra, polar bears or climate change. The works can be naturalistic or abstract. They can be paintings, drawings, photographs, sculptures and installations.

 

For this exhibition we welcome both established and emerging artists, locally or within Sweden to submit their work. Artists can also list the works for sale during the period. One artist can submit several works. The foyer has several bigger walls, but limited floor space. It’s possible to also hang light sculptures or other types of works from the ceiling. 
 

Guidelines:

• Maximum size for wall art: 50 cm x 50 cm
   

• Maximum size for 3D art such as installations or sculptures: 30 cm in every direction. If you wish to submit other types of artwork - please send a mail and ask us. It’s not guaranteed we can provide the space.
