Compensation details
Each exhibiting artist will be paid an exhibition fee based on the fee schedule: 30 works on open-air plinths – $1,000 per; 30 works under plexiglass – $750 per; 10 large-scale works – $5,000 to $15,000 per. The BWST Team will also work with our networks to sell works on behalf of the artists at their stated price. Artists will receive 100% of the sale price, less 50% of their exhibition fee—this does not apply to works for sale as part of Sculpture Inside.
Artists are responsible for covering all transportation and material costs associated with the work within the fee. Fees for engineering drawings are to be covered by the exhibition fee.
