Terms & Conditions

Selection Of Works

The artist must submit photographs and or / slides of all the works being offered for exhibition. Each work has to be accompanied with full details as to the title, year of execution, medium and size in centimetres (height x width). From these, in consultation with the artist, we shall select those works which we consider appropriate for the exhibition.

Important Note

As far as possible, and as a general rule, this Gallery would like to show an artist’s recent and latest works – that is, those done in the last three years, works that are fresh and show the artist’s latest explorations. In the context of the exhibition that we have planned, works done more than three years ago, and left-overs and unsold works from an artist’s previous exhibitions elsewhere will not be acceptable. We will make exceptions only in the case of works of extraordinary artistic quality and enduring interest, after artist’s prior discussion with us.

Photographs For Publicity And Press

We will need good, glossy, black-and-white photographs of 8 to 10 works two weeks before the exhibition for publicity purposes. Additional photographs will be required during the exhibition for the press.

BIO-DATA AND LIST OF WORKS

The artist must provide an up-to-date bio-data or curriculum vitae, arranged chronologically. In this, the year and place of birth has to be indicated. Two glossy, black-and-white photographs of the artist are also required. The LIST OF WORKS for exhibition must also be chronologically arranged, with full details referred to in Para I above.

OUR COMMISSION

Our commission on the sale of a work to a client is 33 and one-third per cent of the sale price. If we purchase the works ourselves, our commission will be 40 per cent. The Gallery reserves the right to make the first selection for itself from works on exhibition.

WORKS ON CONSIGNMENT

After the exhibition, the Gallery will keep a selection of works on consignment for a period of one year, for possible sale to prospective clients.

OUR LIABILITY

PACKING AND TRANSPORT COSTS

We are not responsible for the costs of packing or transport of the works.

STORAGE

Unfortunately, we have limited storage facilities and cannot accommodate large crates or bulky packing cases. The artist will have to make his own arrangements for the storage of packing material elsewhere for the duration of the exhibition. The Gallery will be happy to provide assistance.
