Public Space One is now taking proposals from artists and curators for solo and group exhibitions and art events to take place January-June 2017 in our gallery space at 120 N. Dubuque St. in downtown Iowa City.

PS1 is a venue for innovative, experimental, and challenging contemporary art. We encourage artists to use the space for the duration of their exhibition by holding events such as screenings, artist talks, performances, or workshops. While all proposals will be seriously considered, highest priority is generally given to artists whose work goes beyond what is on the wall -- that has a strong conceptual framework, experiments with ideas, materials, media, or contexts, is socially-engaged, and/or makes great use of our unique space.

We typically program exhibitions that last 3-4 weeks, though we are also interested in one-time events or shorter-term exhibitions. Please include any scheduling limitations as an addendum to your proposal.

Send us a proposal describing your work and/or idea and explaining how you imagine it working in (or from out of) our space. We welcome written proposals, digital images, or web links that explain or demonstrate your exhibition/event concept. There is no formula for application; however a strong written description (if for work yet to be made) and/or a thorough group of images (if work already exists) is very helpful! Please email inquiries or your proposal to: gallery@publicspaceone.com.

Deadline: Sun. Nov. 13 at midnight
