2010 NZ Sculpture OnShore Indoor Gallery
We seek artworks, preferably small to medium-sized sculptures, ceramics or glass works that are suitable for the outdoors, to offer for sale in the Indoor Gallery during the 2010 NZ Sculpture OnShore exhibition, 2 - 14 November 2010.
Gallery works will be selected by proposal. We reserve the right to decline unsuitable pieces as they arrive on site. The curator will make the final decisions on locations for all selected works based on the nature of the art works site suitability, and the gallery layout and design. This will allow us to maintain a high-quality level in the gallery as well as the main exhibition. Our 33⅓% commission rate will apply to gallery sales.
Commission on sales
All work exhibited will be for sale and our commission on sales will be 33⅓% including GST if you are GST-registered. Our sponsorship campaign aims to cover the exhibition expenses, thus enabling us to donate the sales commission to NZ Women’s Refuges.

NZ Sculpture OnshoreNZ Sculpture OnShore presents a major biennial exhibition of New Zealand sculptural work suitable for the outdoors.
New Zealand Sculpture OnShore's biennial sculpture exhibition has become recognised as one of New Zealand's leading exhibitions. We have developed a reputation for exhibiting a vast and excellent collection of contemporary New Zealand art and have consistently delivered on our promise of providing an "excellent day out". Our connection with the spectacular cliff-top Fort Takapuna site overlooking the Hauraki Gulf, the breadth and diversity of our exhibition allows us to take some artistic risks whilst still undertaking that there is "something for everybody" and particularly our direct link and support of New Zealand Women's Refuges, set us apart from other exhibitions and are points of differentiation we proudly promote.
The works of over 100 New Zealand artists are on public view and for sale during the 12-day exhibition at Fort Takapuna Historic Reserve.
NZ Sculpture OnShore 2008 raised $150,000, which brings the total of funds raised for NZ Women's Refuges to over $1 million.
NZ Sculpture OnShore Ltd is wholly owned by Friends of Women's Refuges, a charitable trust, which was formed to raise funds for the support of NZ Women's Refuges. Since 1995 eight outdoor sculpture exhibitions have been mounted. The core group of trustees who established NZ Sculpture OnShore are joined by a hundred further volunteer helpers during the ten days of each exhibition.
