Most importantly, there are no advance application forms. Works must be delivered directly to Cafe Gallery. Another person can deliver your work provided that they have your written permission for the works to be entered and they have the correct information to complete the Entry Form (Artist's name, address, Title(s) of the work, number of copies if it is an edition, artist's contact details, sale price inclusive of 33% gallery commission. Entry fees can only be paid in cash or by cheque. Artists may choose to submit either two-dimensional works or a single three-dimensional work or video works on a single TV/DVD combo unit.
Up to 3 two-dimensional works can be submitted. Two-dimensional work must be no larger than 635 mm (25 inches) in width, length or depth (including frame). Works must be ready to hang with wire or mirror plates (we cannot accept clip frames). In keeping with the size limit, works from an individual artist will not be hung together. This means that works submitted as diptychs, triptychs, etc will not be hung together.
One three-dimensional work can be submitted. Three-dimensional work must be no larger than 635mm (25 inches) in width, length or depth (including plinth if supplied).
Video works must be supplied looped (this means that the DVD must be programmed to automatically loop without relying on the loop feature of the DVD player) with a 14 inch combo unit (14 inch TV with built in DVD player). Only ONE combo unit can be supplied by each artist. The limit of 3 works still pertains (i.e A maximum of three works in video can be looped onto one tape).
Each work submitted must be labelled with Name, Address, Title, Date, E-mail address, contact telephone number and Price (inclusive of 33% gallery commission).

CGP London shall have no liability whatsoever for any loss, damage, destruction, deterioration or wear, including damage to frames, caused to a work submitted to the Open Exhibition.
