Rosalux Gallery is pleased to announce its Fourth Annual OPEN-DOOR Exhibition. This is the only chance for non-member artists to showcase their work in the gallery. Typically, the open door exhibition is reviewed and receives extensive press coverage. This is an excellent opportunity to exhibit artwork in one of Minneapolis’s premiere commercial gallery spaces. All media are accepted: there are no guidelines set for subject matter, medium or style, and the show is open to anyone throughout the world.*
This year Yasmil Raymond, Assistant Curator at the Walker Art Center, will jury the show. Raymond received her B.F.A. from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 1999 and her M.A. from the Center for Curatorial Studies at Bard College in 2004. She recently organized "Brave New Worlds" with curator Doryun Chong and a solo exhibition of works by Tino Sehgal.
