Exposed! 2008
Helen Day Art Center’s Annual Outdoor Sculpture Exhibition

Call to Artists

  -- DEADLINE EXTENDED TO APRIL 11 --

The Helen Day Art Center, in Stowe, Vermont, is seeking artist’s to participate in the 15th annual Exposed! 08 Outdoor Sculpture Exhibition, running from July 11th through October 11th, 2008.

Sculptors may apply in any medium that can endure the outdoors in a public setting for 3 months. All sculptures must be securely mounted to the ground at the designated site, and be made safe for children and pedestrian traffic.

Sculptures will be installed on the Helen Day Art Center lawn, on Main Street and neighboring streets, along the 5 mile recreation path, and in other highlighted sites in the Town of Stowe, Vermont. The Exposed! Curator will assign the sites to the sculptors.

All sculptors are responsible for the transportation, installation, de-installation of their work and returning the specific site used to its original condition. Sculptors may apply for stipends to help with the transport and installation costs of their pieces. Please see the application for details and deadlines.

Each Sculpture will be identified with a nameplate provided by the HDAC.
Free ‘walking tour’ maps locating the sculptures and identifying the sculptors, will be made available to the public by HDAC. HDAC will send PR kits with info on the sculptors to the media. HDAC will provide postcard announcements to the public, and to the sculptors. The exhibit will be publicized on the HDAC website.

HDAC will monitor the condition of the sculpture on a weekly basis. HDAC does not insure the sculpture.

The Sculptor is responsible for assigning a retail price, from which HDAC claims 30% commission.
