Q: Can you give me some
advice as for the shipment of my artworks? |
|
A: (1) Make sure, that your
paintings arrive at the gallery 8 to 2 days before the opening
of your exhibition - NOT EARLIER! |
(2) NOTE! In order to avoid
problems with customs, artworks sent from outside the European
Union must be escorted by Official Invoice and there are
three different ways to import artworks:
|
(a) by ATA Carnet (see: www.atacarnet.com
) |
|
(b) by Temporary Importation
Under Bond (TIB) (read more about: www.atacarnet.com/ata-carnet-info.htm |
|
(c) by customary importation
depenting on the declared value of artworks. We recommend to
declare an as low as possible but credible value of 70-100 Euro
for each artwork. |
|
|
(3) Be sure to set up your
shipment carefully and understand that you take responsibility
for any problems that may occure as to the importation. |
|
Q: Is there any limit regarding
the dimension resp. weight of an exhibit? |

of the package shouldn't exceed 120 cms. |

to be shipped with or without supporting frames? |

special insurance for the artworks in the gallery? |

the risks inherently associated with any such exhibition. |

Q: After the show, how
do we collect back the artworks? |
|
A: You can make arrangements
with your shipper to pick up artworks or pick them up in person.
Otherwise we will repack unsold artworks in the boxes you shipped
them in and ship them back to you at your cost as stated in the
agreement document. Please understand that artworks have to be
shipped back within at least 8 weeks after the end of the exhibition.
Otherwise we will auction them off in favor of the price money
for the Palm Award. |

commission the gallery nets from selling the artist's artwork,
the gallery will refund the artist 250 Euro of his representation
fee. |
|
Q: Can you tell something
about the average turnover of the gallery. |
|
A: We currently sell about
10% to 15% of the exhibited artworks, in other words 1 of 10
pieces out of each exhibition. |
