GAZE Modern Opens Second Half of Summer Invitational Tonight

Arts & Culture

GAZE Modern closes out its inaugural season with the second part of its summer invitational, Intro, opening tonight. The second of this two-part exhibition brings a range of regional artists to the gallery and asks the local audience to voice who among them should become the next artist(s) officially represented by the gallery. Artists can submit work in any medium, from painting to prints and from sculpture to photography, but only one or two pieces maximum. From that select representation, audiences will cast their votes on what they would like to see more of in the coming season. Voting can either be performed in-person at the gallery, or online at a later date.

And for the artist or artists who do become gallery artists, the benefits are myriad. In the coming season at GAZE Modern, they will receive their own exhibition, either solo or in collaboration, as well as having their work featured on the GAZE Modern website and in annual group shows such as Shopliftable and the November anniversary exhibition.

Intro: Part 2 opens tonight at GAZE Modern with an opening reception from 5pm to 8pm. The exhibition, and the voting, runs until August 24.
