OR

THE PROPOSALS WILL BE EMAILED TO moving.gallery.reading@gmail.com

NB: individual files not larger than 1MB each.

 

 

 

The entire selection process referrers to a panel. The first Selection will be done digitally and the result (successful or unsuccessful) communicated via email. At this stage, the panel will select Artists based on the successful interpretation of the concept of MG.

If an Artist is successful, he or she will be contacted and asked to present their works to the panel so as to discuss how to develop the proposal/s further. At this second stage, the panel will focus on the feasibility of the proposal.

If needed, successful Artists will proceed to realise their proposal/s with the support of Reading Buses technicians and facilities by using the 2D printer (on vinyl) and/or the 3D printer.

Panel's decisions are final and the selection panel and/or organisers reserve the right to refuse works that are difficult to hang, install or handle.
