Subscription Program

Subscribers to Graphicstudio join individual, corporate and institutional collectors in acquiring distinctive prints and sculpture multiples by contemporary artists at excellent values. The program is an opportunity to create a collection or add depth to an existing one.

Graphicstudio receives only partial support for its programs through the University of South Florida, College of The Arts. Research and educational programs are also funded by grants, contributions and from the sales of publications. The Subscription Program is the critical component to ensure the continuing success of Graphicstudio as a vital center for art making, research and education. It allows internationally distinguished artists to experiment with new ideas and techniques in an environment free from the pressures of a commercial workshop, and allows Graphicstudio to contribute to the cultural vitality of the University and the Tampa Bay communities.

The Subscription Program requires a $7,000 initial membership fee for each period, which is generally one year. During the subscription period, six offerings of artworks will be made available for purchase at $500 each (plus tax if applicable). Graphicstudio subscriptions may be shared by two parties; both will receive Graphicstudio privileges. The initial fee ($7,000) plus the cost of the six projects ($3,000) brings the total to $10,000 plus tax (if applicable) to fully participate in the Graphicstudio Subscription Program.

 

Subscription Benefits

In addition to the six offerings of artworks, Subscribers also receive

• Archival packaging for long-term storage of artworks, at cost and available upon request.

• Invitations to lectures by curators, scholars and Graphicstudio artists.

• Exclusive previews of openings at Graphicstudio and the USF Contemporary Art Museum.

• Free one year membership to the USF Institute for Research in Art.

 

Subscription Availability

The number of subscriptions available is limited to 35. Subscription renewals are offered to current subscribers on a first right of refusal.
