Barridoff Auctions is seeking three outdoor sculptures for the inaugural sculpture garden at our gallery in South Portland. We host 3-4 auctions per year at our facility, and we want to give local Maine sculptors a platform to showcase their work in an area well trafficked by a community in the arts. We are looking for sculptures of any medium - as long as it can withstand the elements while it is on display between August 2024 and June 2025. We are seeking artwork that is currently made and ready for display. Barridoff will offer free transportation within 30 miles of our gallery (South Portland), as well as a commission split of 40/60 between Barridoff/artist.

Please submit an artist statement, CV, description of the work (with any special installation instructions) along with photos of work. You can submit up to three different pieces for consideration.
