Proposing an Exhibition at COFAspace

Submissions

Due to the large number of enquiries COFAspace receives, a structured application procedure has been developed to assist students and staff in applying for use of the COFAspace. These procedures reflect standard submission requirements of other exhibition spaces and will ensure that proposals can be addressed in a fair and timely manner.

Exhibition proposals are granted on the validity of the project, the strength of the connection of the project to Cofa, Lecturer involvement, and the date of application.

Exhibitions are generally granted for a week, with installations scheduled for Mondays and de-installations taking place Friday afternoons.

Proposals are accepted all year and must include:

• a cover letter with lecturer/student’s contact details (name, address, phone, email)

• a one page statement detailing the content, subject, conceptual underpinning and material form and installation requirements of the intended work

• a signed statement from a lecturer/supervisor confirming their involvement and the proposed exhibitions relation to cofa supporting visual material in the form of 35mm slides, CD-rom, DVD or if applying online, a jpeg

• a signed statement confirming the proposed exhibitor(s) understands the galleries rules and regulations, completed a safety exhibition checklist, reviewed the galleries floor plan (all 3 documents are available online) are prepared to staff the exhibit, and will be available to install on the Monday and de-install and return the gallery to its prior standard by 5 pm on the Friday

For further information or if you wish to discuss this procedure contact Adrian Davies at COFAspace on 9385 0797 Monday and Friday or email eps@cofa.unsw.edu.au
