Respect for the work
Parkdale Gallery is all about the quality of the artwork. Artists from all regions of Canada and from all backgrounds are invited to submit their works for consideration. New artists that are shown for the first time in a gallery are welcomed by established artists. The result is that the gallery showcases the works of a diverse artistic community.
Support for an artist’s vision
We believe that artists should show the work that they themselves feel best represents their vision and talent. Gallery shows are built around submissions. In this way we are able to showcase the best of an artist’s portfolio. Artists are invited to submit to the gallery on an ongoing basis. ( Artists: Please submit by e-mail with a link to your web site, or with two or three attached compressed images, along with a summary C.V. Thanks.)
Parkdale Gallery does not charge artists any fees to show, nor any installation charges or hanging fees. Works are selected on merit, originality and quality.
A fair and safe environment to show
Parkdale has fair and reasonable contracting practices. Our consignment agreements are based on international fair practices. Artist’s commissions are industry standard and are not rebated or reduced. The gallery does not reduce artist pricing without their prior consent. Artists enter into a secure contractual relationship wherein copyright is protected.
Long term commitment
Our theme shows are a little longer than most galleries. This way the artists have more exposure to you the public. We also represent artists and work with other galleries to promote local talent.
When the Parkdale Gallery invites an artist to be part of the gallery, our long term contractual commitment includes maintaining a web presence for the artist for a minimum of six months. For some artists this is their first web exposure.
