Gallery Hire

Artcore’s Aims

• Support recent graduates, emerging to mid-career artists, both locally and internationally
• Provide an exhibition space that is a vibrant environment for creative practice and dialogue
• Offer opportunities for artists to develop skills and gain knowledge for their own professional development
• Engage new audiences in contemporary visual arts

Selection process

Proposals will be assessed on the following criteria:

• Stimulating and relevant themes
• Artwork must be contemporary and innovative
• Exhibit high level of skill
• Experimental and ambitious work and curation
• Engagement with the community (desirable)

Work is assessed on its merits, rather than the past achievements of the artist and there is no preference regarding medium in which the artwork is made.

We advise artists and curators to visit the gallery space before submitting a proposal to ensure awareness of the size of the space.

We hold exhibition meetings every three to six months, in which Artcore’s creative team participate in the selection process. All exhibition proposals will be discussed, and those that best meet our criteria will be successful. Once a proposal has been approved at the meeting, coordinators will be allocated to each exhibition in order to bring them successfully into fruition by liaising between the artists/curators and Artcore’s creative team.
