In our on-going efforts to sensitize Barbadians and visitors to the Lloyd Erskine Sandiford Centre (LESC) and support local artists, our team at Barbados Conference Services Limited (BCSL), which manages the LESC, has launched an initiative “Meet Fantastic Art at LESC”, which will commence on Thursday, July 1 2010 and run until June 30 2011.
2010.
Artists who reside in Barbados will be offered the Centre to display their work, which will be seen by persons who pass through the Centre on a daily basis and at the same time, the art is expected to add a welcome artistic element to the décor of the Centre.
There will be no fees, however each artist will be required to: Have their display work insured and provide us with proof of the insurance; Curate their display; Contribute 10% of items sold to Barbados Conference Services Ltd.; Provide a written description of each item and contact details for the artist, to enable key BCSL team members to answer any queries and to satisfy our company’s risk management protocols; Agree to mount a display for one month, concurrently with two (2) other artists; Replace with-in 48 hours, any items sold, to maintain the integrity of the overall display; Note the black-out period of November 2010, when we will facilitate the NIFCA Visual Arts Exhibition
Note that while requests for displaying on more than one (1) occasion in the calendar year will be considered, artists who have not displayed, will be given priority in the first calendar rotation; Note that the Centre is dynamic and management reserves the right to request to reschedule any display bookings;
Since the initiative was informally discussed with a few artists at BMEX, four (4) artists have indicated their interest to display at the Centre commencing July 2010 and months requested are July and August 2010 and February 2011, however these are not yet confirmed.
Interested persons may contact:
