The In Practice open call program supports emerging artists in creating new work for exhibition at SculptureCenter.

2021 In Practice Artist Proposals
Application Deadline: Monday, June 30, 2020, 11:59pm (your local time)
All applications must be submitted using our online submission system.

SculptureCenter is a not-for-profit museum that takes the history and legacy of sculpture as a framework from which to consider the diverse activity taking place in the field of contemporary art. SculptureCenter's program encourages artists and audiences to explore the possibilities of sculpture and the multifarious ways in which sculpture is developing and connecting to other forms of expression, including installation, video, performance, architecture, and other media.

Exemplifying the spirit of SculptureCenter's mission, In Practice supports innovative artwork, fosters experimentation, and introduces audiences to under-recognized practices and new ideas. The program offers participants the opportunity to develop and present work in what is often their first institutional exhibition in New York City.

We invite artists to submit proposals each spring for new projects to be presented the following January. Artists selected for the In Practice exhibition will receive an honorarium and production support. The level of production support will depend on the scope of accepted works and available funding.
