5 PROJECT ACCEPTANCE AND DEVELOPMENT
Applicants who receive positive feedback from the exhibition team will have the opportunity to curate an online exhibition on artdealerstreet.net.
The exhibition will be promoted on all Art Dealer Street channels and a digital exhibition catalogue will be released.
Artists involved in the winning projects will need to sign up on artdealerstreet.net and create their profile.
There are no required fees for either the artists or curators, for the exhibition development.

6 COMPENSATION
Compensation for winning curators is commission-based.
When an artwork sells, the artist owning the work will receive 65% of the sale.
The remaining percentage is shared 50/50 between our organization and the independent curator.
Example:
- a $1,000.00 sale of a work included in the exhibition is completed the split sale will be $650 to the artist, $175 to Art Dealer Street, $175 to the curator.
Independent curators and artists can decide to keep the proposed artworks on sale on art dealer street. In this case, the same compensation mechanism remains valid for sales that happen after the exhibition ends.
