PRODUCTION AND INSTALLATION:
Capture will pay for the production of the work(s) including printing, mounting, framing in Vancouver, Canada, in consultation with the Artist. The work(s) will be an ‘exhibition print(s)’ and exist for the purposes of the Capture x Booooooom exhibition. After the close of the exhibition, if the Artist wishes to retain the work, the Artist may choose to pay for return shipping fees to a location of their choice. Alternatively, the exhibition print will be destroyed at the close of the exhibition.
RIGHTS/REPRODUCTION/IMAGES:
The Artist owns the image used to create the Work and retains the right to use it in any other size/medium/format once the artwork is de-installed on May 4, 2024. Until that date, the Artist may not reproduce, distribute, sell, or exhibit the Image or the Work in contexts outside of Capture.
Capture and Booooooom will use the Image only for purposes related to the installation, in the Catalogue, for promotional purposes of Capture, and to promote the Work and Capture. The Image will not be altered or cropped in any way for these purposes without the prior consent of the Artist.
Capture will provide the Artist with high resolution photo documentation (.jpg and tiff formats) of the Work once installed.
FINANCIAL:
Capture will cover the cost of the printing and framing, shipping, installation of the Work.
The Artist will receive a $ 575 CAD fee for their contribution to the Exhibition.
The printing and framing specifications will be discussed and mutually decided between Capture and the Artist.
