apexart Open Call for Group Exhibitions 2018-19 
<https://apexart.org/opencalls.php?utm_source=oberlist&utm_medium=comp&utm_campaign=nyc18> 


*DEADLINE:* October 31, 2017
*
*apexartwill accept exhibition proposals from October 1 - 31, 2017. 
Three top rated proposals will become exhibitions presented at apexartin 
New York City as part of its 2018-2019 program season. Curators, 
artists, writers, and creative individuals, regardless of experience 
level, art world involvement, and location, are invited to submit ideas 
online. There are no fees associated.

•   The Submission Process: Proposals should describe focused, 
idea-driven, and original group exhibitions. They cannot exceed 500 
words and must be written in English.*  No biographical information, 
CVs, links, or images accepted - just describe the exhibition you want 
to create using 500 words or less as effectively as possible. Projects 
are judged by the strength of the exhibition idea and the organizer's 
ability to communicate it.


•   The Selection Process: apexartexhibitions attempt to expand the 
selection process by making it as democratic and meritocratic as 
possible.A diverse and changing jury of 200 people from around the world 
participate in a crowdsourced voting process. Each juror receives a 
dedicated login to read and register votes online for 50 or more 
proposals. Proposals are anonymous, reordered, and all receive equal 
consideration by the jury.

•   The Results: The organizers of the three top rated proposals are 
notified that their exhibitions will be part of apexart’s upcoming 
season. The organizers/curators are allotted a $10,000 budget to produce 
an apexartexhibition and accompanying public programming. The 
organizer/curator receives a $2,000 honorarium for coordinating the 
exhibition and public programs, and writing the exhibition brochure 
essay at the conclusion of the exhibition. The guest organizers/curators 
work closely with the apexartteam to turn their ideas into 
apexartexhibitions and retain the original concept.

punctuation, and sentence structure.
