ARTISTS are being invited to submit miniature works on art on a postcard for a summer exhibition.

The pieces of work will feature in Art to Go, a five-week exhibition at the North York Moors National Park gallery at Danby, which aims to show visitors how affordable and portable art can be.

Established and emerging artists are invited to submit up to ten original pieces of postcard art using any medium, from drawings, photographs and paintings through to printmaking and textiles.

Each postcard will remain unsigned when it’s on display, with the artist’s name only being revealed after each card has been purchased.

Sally Ann Smith, curator for the Inspired by… gallery said: “Postcard art is a recognised medium in its own right. It inspires the ingenuity of the artists, and can be a perfect starting point for the new collector.

“With the postcards going on sale for £25 each, we’re hoping the exhibition will open people’s eyes to the fact that art can be enjoyed by everybody and that owning an original piece really is possible.”

The exhibition begins on July 29 and artists are invited to submit an application to the gallery by June 30. Artwork must be submitted no later than 24 July.
