Call For Submissions


New Prints 2007/SpringInternational Print Center New York announces a call for entries for New Prints 2007/Spring opening in our Chelsea space in March, 2007. We are requesting submissions of newly created fine art prints.

Once a year, in a variation from the usual six-member Selections Committee structure, IPCNY invites an individual artist or curator who has contributed significantly to the world of printmaking to make the selections. The Juror for New Prints 2007/Spring will be announced in late December.

In keeping with our mission to promote the greater appreciation and understanding of the fine art print, IPCNY presents a selection of new prints four times per year. Criteria for selection are:

Only original fine art (limited edition and unique) prints are eligible; reproductions of other artwork such as drawings or paintings are not acceptable.
Selections will represent a broad diversity of sources, geographical and otherwise.

Prints must have been completed between January 1, 2006 and the submission deadline.
Please refer to the following guidelines when preparing submissions:

THERE IS NO ENTRY FEE. Independent artists, workshops, publishers and dealers are all welcome to submit recently completed print projects.
Send work in 35 mm slide format (no glass). DO NOT SEND ORIGINAL ARTWORK. A maximum of five works per artist is allowed. There is no size limit.

All submissions must contain a completed entry form.

Slides must be labeled with the number designated on the entry form, artist's name, the name of submitter (if different), and a dot in the lower left-hand corner.
Place slides in slidesheet (can be cut down). DO NOT ENLOSE BINDERS, FOLDERS, OR ANY MATERIALS OTHER THAN SLIDESHEET AND ENTRY FORM.

A self-addressed envelope with the proper postage must be enclosed, otherwise you will not receive notification or returned materials

Mail submissions to IPCNYNew Prints Program526 West 26th Street, Room 824New York, NY 10001Materials must be received by January 8, 2007. No phone calls please.

With this twenty-third presentation, IPCNY continues its role as an ongoing venue for the rotating display of exciting new prints. We look forward to seeing your recent projects. Thank you.
