NZ Sculpture OnShore, New Zealand's largest outdoor sculpture exhibition is held every two years at the spectacular O Peretu, Fort Takapuna Historic Reserve on Auckland's North Shore. The exhibition, which will feature work from established and emerging artists, provides a unique snapshot of contemporary three-dimensional art practice in New Zealand. All the works exhibited at NZ Sculpture OnShore are for sale during the exhibition and proceeds from each exhibition are donated to Women's Refuge New Zealand. To date NZ$2.2 million has been donated to help Women's Refuge support the victims of domestic violence in New Zealand. Expressions of interest are sought from NZ and International artists for the next biennial exhibition in November 2023. Curator Sally Lush is seeking a range of new works or those not exhibited previously in Auckland that will suit the large, exposed cliff top site. The artworks selected will range in scale from monumental stand-alone sculptures to domestic and small-scaled works, ephemeral projects, light and sound art works, interactive and participatory works, process art and site-specific installations utilising some of the historic built structures will also be included. Works that explore and raise consciousness of the Women's Refuge cause and those that relate to the history of the site will be encouraged. Along with interactive and participatory works, we would love to see chairs, benches and seats of an artistic nature to create space for visitors to rest and contemplate during their visit. Works that address issues of the environment, sustaincapability and political issues will be welcome to add to the dialogue, variety and appeal of the sculptural offering to the public. Exhibiting at this event will expose your work to an expected 20,000 plus visitors, your work will be featured in our printed catalogue, on our website and in our advertising campaigns. You will receive the proceeds from the sale of your work less 40% commission.
