What’s Happening with SHIM Art Network? THREE art shows in one!
Jill Krutick Fine Art is partnering with SHIM Art Network to bring you three art opportunities for the price of one — Aqua Art Miami (during Art Basel), Venice (at a nearby Palazzo and held during the Venice Biennale in 2026) and Artsy online.
The package will include 3 paintings — two that are shipped to a Connecticut address by November 14th. The third painting you hold onto and it gets shipped directly to a buyer if it is sold. All three works will be uploaded on Artsy before Miami Art Basel in December 2025.
The curator receives 30% of sales of the third painting sold. The first two paintings, artists receive 100% of sales.
The two works sent to Connecticut will be transported for you to Miami to appear in Room 120 at Aqua Art Miami during the Art Basel weekend. The event runs from December 3 - 7, 2025 and is located at 1530 Collins Ave., Miami Beach, FL 33139. One painting will be framed and displayed on a wall with a grid of same-sized, framed work. The second piece will be stored and available should the first one sell.
At the end of the Miami show your work will be transported back to Connecticut and stored until one of your pieces is shipped to Venice. It will be framed in Venice to appear on a wall with a grid of similar-sized works. It will be exhibited at a palazzo that is very close to the Venice Biennale in the September - November 2026 timeframe. Details to be shared when available.
There are TWO size offerings: OPTION A or OPTION B
OPTION A. Three 10 x 10 inch works on paper. The work will all be sold at a uniform price of $350 per painting. The cost of participating is $225.
OPTION B. Two 18 x 18 inch works on paper or stretched canvas (up to 1” deep). Plus one 10 x 10” work on paper (this third work will be the one that is shipped to Venice). If this option is selected, all THREE works will need to be shipped to Connecticut by November 14th. The larger works can be sold at a price determined by the artist, while the 10 x 10 inch work on paper will be sold at a uniform $350. The cost of participating is $300.
