In its first year “3331 Independents” brought together over 350 works in 3331’s main gallery. It is usually the case in such an open call submission that works are presented without hierarchy, but 3331 also provides a scholarship program for select artists nominated by visitors and jury panel. Winners of this scholarship will have the opportunity to present their work in “Gallery B” in a short exhibition from April 2012.
The selection will be based on a popularity vote held during the exhibition period, the selection of a jury of guest artists and professionals during a public critic session, and the rigorous selection of the 3331 staff. Results will be announced after the exhibition.
