Deadline March 22, 2010
Exhibition April 3 - 25, 2010
"Artists' books are books, or book-like objects, over the final appearance of which an artist has had a high degree of control; where the book is intended as a work of art in itself." Stephen Bury
EACH ARTIST MAY SUBMIT 2 ARTIST’S BOOKS PER SUBMISSION FOR THIS EXHIBITION • Generally, no book should be larger than can be displayed on a 12 inch (30cm) high podium style display, or that cannot lay conveniently on a table. Any type or style of artist book including foldouts, accordion style (concertinas), scrolls, or loose pages contained in a box, and in any medium utilizing any sort of ground, or page materials, may be submitted. All sorts of binding are welcome. Books that are purely creative text are welcome. However, books that are meant to be read, as say a novel or where the text alone is the key to the content of the book, and having no extra-creative aspect about them, will be rejected. Email through the gallery’s website if there are questions.

The gallery is dedicated to the presentation of contemporary visual art in thematic monthly group shows providing opportunities for artists to exhibit their work within a context of current international practice from varied ethnic and cultural contexts. All viewpoints and mediums are welcome. The gallery's mission is to provide an opportunity for artists to become exhibiting members in the arts community of New York City, whether they are showing for the first time or have years of exhibition experience.
The gallery is located in the historic Scalamandre Silks Building in Long Island City, one of New York City's most vibrant arts neighborhoods. With magnificent views of the Manhattan skyline, the building houses art galleries, performing arts spaces, and studios. Nearby are a number of museums including PS1, the Fisher Landau Center for Art, and the Sculpture Center. The greater neighborhood hosts diverse arts activities, a number of art galleries, restaurants and clubs, and riverfront attractions.
