Artworks that are to be hung on the wall should be:
- Artworks should be labelled with the artists name on the back
- Framed or gallery stretched/gallery wrapped and ready to hang with hooks, cord, a single central hook or a hanging bar.
- Sculptures do not require labelling but please let us know if you will provide a plinth. We will display sculptures/installations on our plinths or a raised platform, if appropriate, but if your artwork has its own personalised plinth, that augments its presentation and effect, please feel free to send it with your artwork (optional).
- Video art should be sent via file by email
- Digital art that is displayed physically can be printed in Italy and sent directly to us from the printer (however we cannot recommend any printer due to the delicate nature of art printing and artist expectations)
Packing your artwork
- All packages should be labelled with the artist’s name
- Please pack artworks safely for transport but appropriately as not all artworks require an elaborate box or crate (e.g. hand delivered/collected artworks do not need much packing at all).
- Good quality cardboard can be perfectly acceptable and preferable for many types of artworks but you can also use a wood crate if you wish.
- If you intend for us to re-use your packet/box for return shipment, you need to make sure the packet is easy to open and close and therefore re-usable. We will provide bubble wrap to repack works in their original packaging.
- Please avoid real glass on framed artworks as it often can break during transport and damage the artwork (perspex or acrylic glass does not break and is therefore preferable)
Stretching/framing:
If you wish to send your work rolled in a tube to save transport costs please let us know. For this option, we need to receive the work by Monday the 15th July.
