About This Call

The Española Valley Fiber Arts Center is sponsoring the New Mexico Fiber Crawl, a three-day fiber event featuring fiber artists and craftspeople, galleries and museums, farms, and shops. This call for artists is for an invitational and juried show organized in collaboration with galleryFRITZ, located at 540 S. Guadalupe St., Santa Fe, NM. The exhibit, titled Fiber as Metaphor, will showcase fiber work from around the country reflecting the theme of metaphor. The opening reception is May 17 at 5:00 pm, which will also serve as the kick-off party for the Fiber Crawl in Santa Fe. The exhibit closes on May 31.

Fiber artists from anywhere in the United States are eligible to submit original fiber art created within the past three years. Work must not have been previously exhibited in Santa Fe, NM, and must be for sale. Work sold during the exhibit must remain at the gallery until the show closes unless otherwise agreed to by galleryFRITZ. Submissions must be made through CaFÉ by March 30, 2019. The non-refundable entry fee is $25.00. Up to three images or three pieces may be submitted as high-resolution images (minimum width 6", 1800px, at 300 dpi) in JPG, PNG, or TIFF format, labeled with the artist's name, title of work, and year of creation. Include a biography (200 words maximum) and an artist's statement concerning how the work responds to the theme (200 words maximum). List the sale price; galleryFRITZ's commission is 50 percent of the sale price.

The Jury will announce accepted works on April 15, 2019. At least 50 percent of the work in the exhibit will be from New Mexico artists. Work is due at the gallery on or before May 10, 2019 and may be hand-delivered Monday through Friday, 10am-5pm. Artists are responsible for shipping costs. Work must be shipped in sturdy reusable crates, cartons, or containers and received in ready-to-exhibit condition. Wall pieces may not weigh more than 50 pounds. GalleryFRITZ will insure work under its fine arts policy during the exhibit. Work will be available for pickup on June 3, 2019.
