** CLOSED call ** Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have to be a "professional" artist to submit for this gallery show?

You do not have to be a professional artist to submit your work. We are looking for passionate creative people regardless of your profession; all artists and "non-artists" are welcome to submit for this high energy show. 


How will the submitted artwork & JPG images be used?

The artwork and images will only be used for this specific show, but only with consent from the artist. For artists who are submitting from out of town, it is important that you include a self addressed stamped envelop (S.A.S.E.) so your work can be returned. Local San Francisco Bay Area artists will get dates and times for dropping off and picking up the artwork.

All submitted digital images (JPGs) will be limited to promotional use for the show & only with the artist's written consent. The artist submitting the digital image owns the copy rights and Market Street Gallery & GETBIZI.COM only requires usage for promoting this specific exhibition.


As a SF Bay Area artist, can I submit 4"x6" pieces?

Yes, if you are a SF Bay Area artist, you can submit up to 3 - 4"x6" pieces and a larger piece; so you can submit 4 total. For the 4"x6" pieces, please follow the instructions on the 'national' page. The 4"x6" pieces will all be accepted in the show and the larger piece will go through the selection process.


Can non-local SF artist submit larger pieces?

For this specific project, we prefer to have artist around the nation to submit work that is 4"x6" in size to make it easy for the artist to mail. Our objective to to get as many artists as possible to be involve so we can get a good overall 'response'. We will map out the 4"x6" submissions to the map of the US so we can visually see how artist around the nation respond to the word "Palin".

If you feel strongly that you can create a very powerful piece and would like to submit a larger piece, go through the submission process listed for the SF Bay Area page (click here). However, the artist is responsible for shipping cost to and from the gallery. You will be required to be at the opening reception party too so you can discuss your amazingly powerful artwork.


How will the artwork be presented?

All large pieces need to be 'finished', fully presentable and ready to hang. This is a gallery space and we will curate all the different pieces to allow for maximum viewer appreciation of each piece and the collection of different artwork as a whole. We present all artwork as if a museum would; enough space in between the carefully selected pieces.

Even with the 4"x6" artwork from artists around the nation, we will carefully attach cloth tape to pin each piece against the wall. The pins will not go through the piece itself, but through the acid free tape extensions which will be subtle so it does not distract from the artwork itself. The artwork itself will not be handled with the utmost care and will not be damaged in any way what so ever.
