What is a public exhibition?

The difference between public exhibitions and museum exhibitions and solo exhibitions is that ` `the organizer solicits and judges works, and then displays the selected works .''

In some cases, the organizer judges the competition, in other cases, famous artists are invited to judge the competition, and in other cases, the competition is conducted by a sponsoring company.



Advantages of participating in public exhibitions

Depending on the content of each public exhibition, you may receive cash prizes, prizes, benefits, etc. if you participate in and are selected for the public exhibition.

In the case of public exhibitions sponsored by galleries, you may receive the right to hold a solo exhibition or be invited to a special exhibition.

Renting a gallery and holding an exhibition on your own can cost a considerable amount of money, so one way may be to increase your connections with galleries through public exhibitions.

Also, since many other artists besides myself will of course be participating in the public exhibition, it is also an opportunity to increase connections with other artists .

It will be easier to share information among artists, and above all, it will be easier to ask about problems that only creators can understand.

Also, by connecting with an artist, you may have the chance to be connected to a new gallery from that artist and receive an invitation to exhibit!
