Intermedia Gallery: Call for Submissions 2019/20

Call for submissions Deadline: 5pm, Mon 28 January 2019

Applications are to be submitted electronically via the following ONLINE FORM, supporting info (CV, images, moving image links) are to be emailed to submissions@cca-glasgow.com.

Intermedia is an independent gallery space funded by Glasgow City Council and managed by the CCA in partnership with Glasgow Life. The gallery is located within CCA but operates independently of CCA’s curated exhibition programme.

Exhibitions are selected by a panel that includes representatives of both CCA, Glasgow Life and the city’s independent visual arts sector. Funding is awarded to exhibiting artists towards exhibition costs. In return, artists take full responsibility for organising, curating, installing, publicising, invigilating and de-installing their exhibition.

The next deadline for applications to exhibit at Intermedia is 5pm on Monday 28 January 2019.

For further information on how to apply, if you require additional support in completing the application or would like to submit via an alternative format please contact gen@cca-glasgow.com

Applications are received from a wide variety of individuals and groups, from which a programme of exhibitions is selected by a panel of artists, arts professionals based on criteria of quality of work and creative development. The costs of the gallery’s overheads are covered and a small subsidy is provided towards exhibitors’ costs (£600). In return, artists take full responsibility for organising, curating, installing, publicising, invigilating, and de-installing their exhibition, all in line with CCA’s own Health and Safety guidelines. CCA will provide additional marketing and admin support.

Proposals for exhibitions at Intermedia for the period May 2019 – April 2020 are now being sought. If you are interested in exhibiting, please submit via the electronic ONLINE FORM

In addition to the electronic form please then send us the following to submissions@cca-glasgow.com

1) An up to date artist CV, as a PDF document.
2) Supporting material: up to 6 (six) clearly titled images of your work either as PDF document, or as individual files to submissions@cca-glasgow.com
3) If appropriate to your practise (for example that your work is moving image or performance based) no more than 4 (four) clearly labelled hyperlinks to video and/ or documentation listed in a PDF document. Please note that this is optional and not a requirement.

Applications from Glasgow-based practitioners will be prioritised. Submissions from artists who will not be in full-time education at the time of exhibition will also be prioritised. UK-wide and International proposals will be accepted if the proposal demonstrates an invigilation plan for the exhibition.

Historically, Intermedia’s programme has aimed to support emerging artists working in Glasgow. We recognise that ‘emerging’ is a word often associated with age, however, we believe that an artistic practice can ‘emerge’ or ‘re-emerge’ at any stage in life. The overall selection aims to find a balance between gender, artistic content, contemporary discourse and different media. The selection process is consciously non-discriminatory against sexuality, ethnicity and disability. If you have any questions about application please feel free to get in touch.

Your application must arrive no later than 5pm on the closing date, Mon 28 January 2019. We are unable to accept late applications.
