Fall 2024 Critique Group Application

The Amos Eno Gallery is thrilled to offer NYC-area artists, at any stage of their careers, the opportunity to work with several of its Member Artists in a 6-week Virtual Critique Group in Fall 2024 that will culminate in a pop-up exhibition in December 2024 / January 2025 at the gallery.

Accepted artists will have the opportunity to present their work digitally each week to the Moderators and the group for feedback, discourse, and recommendations during the 2.5-hour Zoom sessions.

What differentiates us:

This small critique group (6-8 artists plus 1-2 moderators per session) will help artists get dedicated feedback through discussions led by a rotating cohort of Amos Eno Gallery member artists whose professional experience includes teaching, design, curating, and diverse creative practice.

Unlike other crit groups, each participant will get up to 15-20 minutes of personalized feedback each week.

Crit group members will connect as artists in the NYC-area and can build new connections with each other and the Gallery to create a supportive artist community.

This Critique Group will culminate in a pop-up group show with one or two works by each participant in The Project Space at Amos Eno Gallery in December 2024 and/or January 2025.

The Gallery will provide and distribute press and marketing materials (web, newsletter, Instagram) about the group show to its network of contacts, and the Gallery will pursue press coverage of the show.

Member artists are donating their time as moderators, with program fees going to support gallery operations.

Please note: Admission to this group requires an application submission to be reviewed. All applicants will be juried by the Amos Eno Critique Group Committee and gallery director Ellen Sturm Niz.
