Edition 11

2025 Printmaking Open Call for Entries...

Theme: Underground and Otherworld
Submission deadline: Sun 27th April 2025

Enter 44AD artspace Printmaking Open Exhibition 2025.

The theme for this year is: Underground and Otherworld

Artists are invited to explore the themes of hidden realms, subterranean spaces, and otherworldly dimensions. This exhibition seeks to present work that engages with the unseen and/or the mysterious whether through representations of underground worlds or interpretations of the unknown.

Ideas:
Underground: Physical and metaphorical spaces beneath the surface of the Earth. Subterranean landscapes. Hidden passages. Forgotten histories. Secrecy. Discovery. Unseen.
Otherworld: Realms beyond our own. Supernatural. Paranormal. Fantastical. A space where reality and imagination blur. Strangeness. Wonder.

All 2D and 3D artwork submissions must explore at least one or more printmaking technique, and all work accepted must be ready to hang on submission.

Framed work is to be presented in either black or white frames.

The entry limit for Edition 11 is four works per individual. There is no fee to submit work but there will be a £10 gallery hanging fee for the first artwork accepted into the show, plus a £5 fee for any additional hung artworks.

All gallery displayed work can be made available for sale, with 20% sales commission (10% for Associate Artists) going towards 44AD artspace.

If an artwork is selected for the exhibition, you will then be able to submit additional prints or cards for display in the gallery browsers. Additional browser displayed artworks will not require a gallery hanging fee, though the sales commission will be raised to 30% (20% for Associate Artists).

Please email a digital image of your submission/s to 44ADshow@gmail.com
