Booking information

For a detailed project description, checklist, and images for any of the exhibitions listed,.

Exhibitions are available during the tour dates specified. Booking is on a first come, first served basis, pending approval of an institution’s facility report. When dates are agreed on, iCI will send a booking contract to confirm all arrangements.

Participation Fee
The participation fee covers the specified viewing period, with adequate additional time for installation and dismantling. For bookings longer than the specified period, the fee is pro-rated on a weekly basis; there is no fee reduction for shorter booking periods. A deposit of 30% of the exhibition fee is due when the institution signs a booking contract; the balance is due on the exhibition’s opening day.

Discount Policy
Institutions that have presented iCI exhibitions in the past are eligible for discounts on future bookings: a 5% discount on their third through fifth shows; a 6% discount on their sixth show; a 7% discount on their seventh show; an 8% discount on their eighth show; a 9% discount on their ninth show; and a 10% discount for the tenth and any subsequent bookings.

Space Requirements
Since the exhibitions are often announced as far as two years in advance, actual space requirements may vary from those announced here.

Registration/Insurance/Shipping
Each artwork comes with installation and handling instructions and a condition report. All participating institutions are required to annotate the condition reports upon installation and deinstallation. Exhibitions are covered by iCI’s wall-to-wall fine arts insurance policy. Shipping arrangements are made by iCI; the participating institution is responsible for incoming shipping charges. Institutions outside the continental United States must also pay customs fees as well as outgoing shipping charges to the U.S. border.

Security
Security requirements include a single-use locked space, guard(s) in the exhibition gallery while the exhibition is open to the public, and electronic security and fire-alarm systems in operation 24 hours a day.

Catalogues and Educational Materials
An illustrated catalogue or brochure accompanies each exhibition. A limited number of complimentary catalogues is provided to each participating institution for staff use. Additional catalogues for resale are purchased from iCI. Each exhibition is also accompanied by an introductory wall text and object label text, as well as a packet of varied educational materials to assist in developing educational programs.

Publicity and Credit
A press packet including a sample press release and press photographs is sent to each participating institution prior to the opening. Institutions are required to use the credit line and logo provided by iCI at the entrance to the exhibition and on all public announcements, press releases, invitations, posters, signs, and other promotional material.

iCI is dedicated to enhancing the understanding and appreciation of contemporary art through traveling exhibitions and other activities that reach a diverse national and international audience. Collaborating with a wide range of eminent curators, iCI develops innovative traveling exhibitions, accompanied by catalogues and other educational materials, to introduce and document challenging new work in all mediums by younger as well as more established artists from the United States and abroad.

Acting as a laboratory of ideas and innovative curatorial approaches, iCI exhibitions feature a thought-provoking mix of subjects and artists. In this way, iCI provides opportunities for artists—frequently their first—to have their work seen widely in a critical context.

iCI substantially underwrites the exhibitions' booking fees through its fundraising efforts. By doing so, it fulfills one of its basic objectives: to make iCI exhibitions accessible to a wide range of arts institutions and thus to enable many different audiences to experience the art of our time.

Since its founding in 1975, iCI has created over 100 exhibitions that collectively have included the work of more than 3,000 artists. iCI exhibitions have been presented by over 500 museums, university art galleries, art centers, and alternative spaces in the United States and twenty-one other countries, and have been seen by some 5 million people.

iCI exhibitions provide diverse audiences with the opportunity to learn about significant developments in contemporary art internationally, and to understand those developments in relation to other current cultural trends and issues. The catalogues that accompany all iCI exhibitions enhance their educational impact by placing the exhibited work in art-historical, socio-political, or philosophical contexts. Additional educational materials are provided with each exhibition.

iCI is a non-profit organization with tax-exempt, 501(c)(3) status, supported, in part, by contributions and grants from individuals, foundations, corporations, the iCI Exhibition Partners, the iCI International Associates, and the iCI-Independents.
