The Worcester Contemporary Art Competition 2010

worcesteropen10In collaboration with Worcestershire Contemporary Artists and the PITT Studio, Worcester City Art Gallery will be co-hosting the fourth Worcester Open Exhibition. The exhibition is not themed but will be exploring the methods of selection and curatorial processes associated with Open type exhibitions and the role of mentor and protégé in visual art galleries. Two exhibitions of art from practicing contemporary artists. One salon style, selection-free exhibition at the PITT artist-led space, and one selected exhibition at the Worcester Art Gallery and Museum.  What's the difference between the two shows? All artists who apply will have one work selected and displayed, this will be shown either at the PITT or the Worcester Art Gallery & Museum. There is a selection process for both venues; however artists will be guaranteed an entry (upon delivery) of at least one artwork at the PITT or, if selected, at the Worcester Art Gallery.
