HOW WILL A VIRTUAL POSTCARDS FROM THE EDGE WORK?
Postcards from the Edge 2021 will take place entirely online. All postcard artworks submitted to Visual AIDS will be scanned and photographed. Images of all artworks will be uploaded to a dedicated virtual viewing space. As always with Postcards from the Edge, all artworks will remain anonymous until purchased. To assist collectors with online viewing, we will include information such as title and medium for each work along with high resolution images.
All postcard artworks submitted will be available for viewing online during a “preview” period prior to the public sale, similar to the VIP preview party we have held in past years. Tickets for the VIP Preview are available on a sliding scale from $25-$100 and are available to purchase here. Participating artists will have access to this preview viewing period.
When the sale begins, purchasers will be able to select and pay for artworks via an e-commerce site. Purchased artworks will be mailed to buyers after the event, and a shipping fee will be included with each purchase. Much like a typical Postcards from the Edge event, purchasers will receive information about the artist who created the artwork purchased, along with the artwork. Artists will also be notified of who purchased their works.
The following are guidelines explaining how an online Postcards from the Edge sale will work.
- The sale will take place on a dedicated website - postcards.visualaids.org
- All postcard artworks are priced at $85 each. Sales tax and shipping will be added to your purchase. ALL SALES ARE FINAL - NO RETURNS.
- Special: Buy 4, get the 5th artwork free. This special will remain active throughout the entirety of the sale and will be applied automatically when you check out.
- Artworks generally range from 4x6” to 5x7” in size and are in a range of artistic mediums including painting, drawing, photography, collage, and textile, among others. Some works are 3D or have 3D elements, unusual edges or items extending down or out from the surface. Unusual shapes will be noted in the medium description and should be visible in the image.
- All artworks are displayed without the artist’s name, but with information on title and medium. Sizes of artworks will only be noted if they are larger than 5 x 7.”
- Once you link over to the sale website, you will see there are a total of ~1000 works for sale. You will be able to scroll using the arrow on the right of each page to move to the next page. There will be a total of 56 pages of artwork.
- You will be able to click on the artwork image to enlarge it. A “Buy” button will appear when the artwork is enlarged.
- You will only learn the name of the artist after you have purchased the artwork, and that information will be sent to you by Visual AIDS in an email.
- You can purchase as many artworks as you like, at one time or in multiple purchases.
- Items will become unavailable to other shoppers ONLY when your purchase is complete, so if you intend to purchase a large number of artworks, you may wish to make multiple smaller purchases to make sure you can purchase the artworks you select.
- If you hold artworks in your shopping cart for a significant amount of time without purchasing them, they will still be available to other shoppers and may be purchased by someone else.
- Artworks will disappear from the virtual “wall” after they are purchased, but this will not happen immediately. During busy sale times, you may see works that have already been purchased. You will be alerted that something has already sold after you click the “Buy” button. We apologize for any confusion this may cause.
- Purchased artworks will be mailed to you after the sale, using the shipping address you provide during check out. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, there may be a delay in mailing, but we will work to get you the artwork as quickly as possible.
- To further support Visual AIDS, please visit the complementary auction of larger works on Artsy.
- There will be a VIP Preview event on Friday January 8th, during which participants will be able to view all of the artworks for sale. More information and tickets here.
