CATALOG DESCRIPTION:

• 100 lb stock matte paper  
• Landscape dimensions: 8.5 h x 11 w. ​ 

Production of the catalog is starting next Monday, March 21st so please make sure to re-send higher resolution image files of your artwork if you know you only submitted a small or fuzzy image to me initially.  Send your final contents before production starts 3/21:

• Head shot
• Artwork statement (couple of sentences to be included on the wall label and catalog)
• High resolution image of your work
• Brief bio (if different from what you already submitted.)
• $100 production contribution for 5 copies

Each artist will have a full page in the catalog, room for a brief bio and statement along with the image of the art.

Production of an exemplary exhibition catalog will be used to leverage our stay in Rome.  I will be using this portfolio of images to present your work to galleries and art museums in Rome.

Your contribution of $100 covers the production, printing, shipping, postage and distribution of the exhibition catalog.  Five copies for each artist to send to their circle and the rest to leave at the embassy and for mailing or physically bringing to galleries in Italy and the US as a promotion for the artists.  Each artist will get at least one full page for the art image and brief bios with head shots at the back of the catalog.  

The Rome curator says security has increased at the embassy because of the latest terrorist attacks therefore allowing only for the artists and close friends and family to attend the first reception inside the embassy,

We are trying to arrange a second reception at the home of Paul Berg, Minister Counselor of Political Affairs in Rome.  Mr. Berg was kind enough to host the second reception last year.  This year we would like to contribute to the refreshments since there will be more artists involved.

This is what I need from you as soon as possible:

• Head shot you want to appear in the catalog (If I have one for you already that you want me to use you don't have to send another one.  But it may be helpful to send it again anyway, just to make sure that is the exact one you want published.)
  
  
• Short statement about the selected piece(s).  This will appear beneath the image of your artwork on the gallery wall and in the catalog along with the normal description.
