INFORMATION ABOUT THE CHARLES E. CULPEPER GALLERY<br />
1. Schedule: Please keep the dates assigned to you and contact the Visual Arts Coordinator at least 8 weeks<br />
prior to your show at 212.598.0400 ext. 202 to confirm installation and dismantling times.<br />
2. Installation/Space: <strong>The</strong> gallery is a U-shaped alcove, with the exhibition space located in 3 separate<br />
glass cases. <strong>The</strong> dimensions of each case are approximately 5’ x 9’, 5’ x 17’ 7”, and 5’ x 9’. Due to glass<br />
door panels slightly overlapping, and the placement of vertical structure bars, there are several one inch<br />
vertical viewing obstructions in each of the exhibition cases. A site visit is strongly encouraged.<br />

hanging the work, please use either map tacks or thumb tacks (white heads). . No pushpins and no tape<br />
of any kind is to be used. Stick-on labels do not adbere to the panels. Please bring the hardware you<br />
wish to use (measuring tape, hammer, etc.) Although installation goes very quickly, you might wish to<br />
bring a friend to help. Please notify the Visual Arts Coordinator about your intended installation date<br />
and time so that the case may be prepped adequately for your use.<br />
4. Artist Statement: Please send us a typed statement that clearly indicates your name and the title of your<br />
show on 81/2 x 11 paper; be sure that this arrives 6 weeks before the date of your show. We will use this<br />

in the press.<br />
