Visual Arts Exhibitions

The SC Arts Commission mounts significant exhibitions of works by contemporary South Carolina artists as a means of promoting South Carolina artists both in-state and out-of-state. The Commission recognizes the benefit of working with other states in collaborative projects to promote South Carolina artists in other markets and to provide reciprocal opportunities for other artists in partner states.

 

Exhibitions focus on specific issues, themes, and trends currently facing the art world and are curated by guest curators or by curators of the host exhibition site. Living artists who are native or resident South Carolinians or who have done significant work while residing in the state are eligible for SC Arts Commission exhibitions. Calls for submissions and/or nominations for consideration of artists to be included in SC Arts Commission exhibitions are publicized through press releases, print media and a call for submissions through the agency's publications and through special mailings.
