What is an ‘art space’ and what sizes and spaces are available?

What is the minimum length of time an artist can rent an ‘art space’?
Artists can rent for a minimum of 3 months (or equivalent days. eg. 84 days) We have exhibitions coming and going which will take up the whole area for two weeks at a time). After that time you can continue on for another 3 months or finish your art space lease. You can change around your art pieces in this time, and of course when you art sells. All changes just need to be run past the curator first.
How much notice do you give when you want to end your ‘art space’?
We need three weeks notice if you are wanting to finish your lease at the end of your three-month stay. You may extend your lease by request also.
How does an artist submit artwork for approval for the gallery ‘art spaces’?
You can log onto www.kapiartspace.com and click on ARTISTS SPACE button.
There you can submit and register for your place in the gallery. Please note not everyone will be able to have their art submitted at one time. Depending on the style and subject matter that gallery will determine what art will sell and is best for the customer audience.
How many art pieces can be displayed in one ‘art space’?
You can submit a minimum of 3 pieces on line for your space and a maximum of 10. In some cases you can have numerous pieces on your wall depending on their theme, size etc. This is to happen in discussion with the curator.
Can you share your ‘art space’ with other friends to carry the expense?
You can apply for a shared space, this will be initially online then in person to determine how best to make the space work for two. In some cases this will not work, as the piece may be too big or not suited together.
How does payment work, is there an admin commission?
Payment is online, www.kapiartspace.com
There is an 5% commission on works sold, to cover admin, packaging etc.
GST is not required, but may be introduced in 2019
