2017 Sculpture on 73rd Avenue Art-On-Loan Program

The 2017 Sculpture on 73rd Avenue Art-On-Loan Program invites artists to submit sculptures for outdoor display. Entry fee is $30 per application. Up to 3 works may be submitted with each application, with a total of 9 images allowed.

Sculptures should be garden-sized or larger (at least 3 feet in one dimension recommended) and valued at no more than $30,000. Acceptable mediums include metal, stone, ceramic, or any other durable material that will withstand outdoor elements. Fragile, dangerous, or inappropriate work will not be considered. All submitted photos must represent the current condition of the work. Sculptures must be for sale, and SWAG will collect a 20% commission on all sales.

Pieces must have the capacity to be welded to ¼" steel plate or bolted to a concrete pad for installation. The park contains seven steel pedestals and three concrete pads. Artists are responsible for delivery and pickup of their work at the conclusion of the one-year term, with shipping costs paid by the artist. Sculptures will be on display for approximately one year from installation in October 2017. Artists will be notified 30 days prior to the removal date in 2018. SWAG and its affiliates may photograph and publish photos and information related to the artwork, and artists will be given recognition. Artists must certify that they have created and possess unencumbered title to the sculpture(s) submitted.
