2020 Invitation to Sculptors

Indiana University Kokomo invites you to participate in our 2020-2022 juried, on-loan, outdoor sculpture exhibit on the Kokomo, Indiana campus.  Selected artists must be willing to enter into an Art Loan Agreement with IU Kokomo and will be awarded an honorarium of $2000 per piece.  IU Kokomo is a regional campus of Indiana University with a vibrant arts program and extensive art collection.  We have installed sculpture pads on our beautiful Kokomo campus to display public sculptures on a rotating basis.  The third installment of this exhibit will be from July 2020 through July 2022. 

Deadline for Submissions: April 1, 2020

Jury will make selections and inform artists by: April 15, 2020
·         Delivery and Installation:  July 6, 2020 – July 24, 2020
·         Exhibition Schedule: July 2020 – July 2022.
·         Sculptures to be removed: within one month prior to the exhibit’s closing of August 2022.

Eligibility:  Artists must own the rights to the artwork, which must be available for the duration of the two-year exhibition period.  Artwork must be ready to set on our 8’ x 8’ cement pads.  The installation method for each sculpture should be welded tabs or similar easy-install method.  The exhibit is outdoors and open to the public, and because of this, certain requirements must be met in order for a sculpture to be considered for display.  Fragile or dangerous works will not be accepted.  Artwork must be available for the duration of the two-year contract, and must be constructed of durable materials that will withstand year-round Indiana weather.

Transportation: Selected artists are responsible for transportation of the artwork to and from the installation site.  The artwork must be delivered as exhibition-ready.  The university will supervise installation of the work, and will insure the artwork for the duration of the exhibit.

Submission Details:  Artists may submit up to two sculptures for consideration, but each submission will be considered separately.  Each submission must include the following:
 ·         A bio/resume describing your experience and exhibition history.      
·         Three images of the work (front, back and one detail).
·         Dimensions (HxWxD) for each submission (the base cannot exceed the 8’ x 8’
          cement pad).
·         Stated insurance value for each work.
·         Each sculpture entry must be submitted individually
