Title: Four thematic exhibitions (preparatory to the Mintbase-NEAR Gambiarra Art Festival)

Objective:
On April 15 World Art Day is celebrated, the date was enacted by the International Art Association (IAA) in order to promote awareness of creative activity in the world. The first celebration was held in 2012. The date chosen is in honor of the birthday of Leonardo da Vinci, one of the leading figures of the High Renaissance and one of the most complete artists of all time, considered a symbol of freedom of expression and multiculturalism.
Taking advantage of this special date, we decided to organize the first edition of an Art Festival, selecting works published on the network Mintbase-NEAR in order to further promote the Gambiarra store, the platform and NEAR. Thus, encouraging artists who have not yet had the opportunity to participate in exhibitions and events, thus also increasing the publication of new works.
During the month of March, there will be 20 spaces for four different themes to be filled on a first-come, first-served basis. Each theme will compose an exhibition of 20 works set up at 3XR Space and from each theme/exhibition, 10 works will be selected to compose the Festival that will take place in April, with a proposal to be released for that month, integrating all the curatorial part, selection of works and realization of the Festival.

Timeline:
From March 1 to 4, the 4 themes will be disclosed and the production of texts about the action and inviting the artists by the Telegram, Whatsapp and Discord groups to register their works through Google Forms and participate in the exhibitions. This disclosure will also happen in the social networks of the proponents and the information will be sent to the marketing team of Gambiarra DAO to be disclosed also in the networks of DAO.
A poster will be produced for the event.
We will encourage the use of the hashtag: #FestArtGambiarra.

From March 5 to March 10 the first exhibition will be set up, to be held on March 11, 12 and 13.
From March 12 to 17 the second exhibition will be set up, and will take place on March 18, 19 and 20.
From March 19th to 24th, the third exhibition will be held on March 25th, 26th and 27th.
and will take place on March 25th, 26th and 27th.
From March 26th to March 31st the fourth exposition takes place, being its realization on March 1st, 2nd and 3rd.
being its realization on April 1, 2 and 3.

Realization:
For each exhibition to take place, a Google Form will be used for each theme, released on March 1 - 4th . The artists will have to choose one of the themes to participate, being 20 artists in each exhibition, registered in order of arrival.
We will publicize on all social media and NFTs groups.

Justification:
Besides all the movement generated by this action, the relevance of this project is to promote beyond the NEAR network and bring new artists to Mintbase, showing that it is a differentiated place, where the platform that sustains it cares about collective actions and encourages artists from the Brazilian community interested in NFTs.

This whole action is a joint celebration calling attention to our work as artists. The moment shows itself as an opportunity to encourage the community to know more about the history of art and the appreciation of culture.

The importance of this project, aimed at holding four exhibitions during the month of March, with one exhibition/theme per week starting on March 11, 2022 and the participation of 20 applicants/artists, is to be a preparatory phase for a Gambiarra Mintbase-NEAR Art Festival, proposed for the month of April, in which a curatorial selection will be made of 10 works from each exhibition/theme. The Festival will open on April 15, 2022 with a party held in a space at Cryptovoxels, either in the Metaverse DAO building or the future Gambiarra DAO building.

The 1st edition of the Festival will become an NFT:
The gathering of all the visual works will become an NFT, to compose this final work a JPEG file will be produced with the list of the names of the participants to be used together with the file that will become NFT.

Marketing:
Images of each publication made on the Mintbase-NEAR network will be prepared for the production of a video that will be published on Youtube channel and COS.TV Gambiarra with a list of all participants with the link to the work of each one. In addition, an exhibition will be organized with the works at 3XR Space.

An example of how this will be done is exposed in the project “SemanaDe22” that can be checked here: @gambiarranear | Linktree

Event Poster:
Production of a poster to publicize the event on social networks, it will be published and become an NFT, it will be distributed among the participants and interested collectors.

Hi Guys
Beautiful project and great initiative to provide interaction and opportunity among nft artists.
Remembering that our projects have a limit of up to $500.00 in Near and this proposal is exceeding 100% of the value, the ideal is that it was made a readjustment on the value limit of the proposal.

I would also like to add some questions about the format to better understand it.
Have you worked with the possibility of not having 20 entrants in each exhibition? If not, what would be done?

Another detail is that three people will do the same activities, and we have two people who are already registered in other proposals.
It is not taking away the merit of anyone, I know how hard work is to do all this, but we have other proposals that are still to be evaluated and Gambiarra seeks to work with space for all members of the community.

Hi @Dazo, sorry I only have the opportunity to answer you now.
There will be 80 artists involved in 4 thematic exhibitions, of which 40 in the second stage will be selected for the festival.
Having 3 people doing the same things doesn’t mean that only one can handle everything. Tell me about it, because FEMINU is giving me a lot of work. It is impossible to think that a remuneration of 500 USD will cover all the hours and hours that I am spending on it, but it is a dream of mine and there is no way to quantify it. I was invited to do another exhibition and for sure the amount will not be that. The size of the project should be defined by the curatorial concept and never by what the store can or cannot pay for it.
A simple exhibition is usually 500 USD. Our project includes one per week. I don’t think it is too little, but the option for smaller projects is a right of the community. I don’t question it. I respect your opinion, my friend. Abraço

Hi Ghini … nice to see your point of view here.
As I said, it’s not about putting a price on one’s efforts, but about fitting in with what we have available.
I imagine how hard it is to do all this production work, and when I talked about three members doing the same job, it was in the sense of trying to adjust something so that we could approve within what we have available, because the project is magnificent and wonderful.
I want you to understand that the decision does not come from me alone and that this was discussed together with Dao. As you are a Dao member we can take this to a joint discussion.
I want to leave here my total respect for you and I admire your work, I’m sorry but this decision was thought together with Dao members, I would never end your dream.
Thank you for your understanding, my friend.
Kiss

Dear @Ghini @iagods and @macieira It is a really beautiful project and we wish to see it and taking part of it.
The problem as @Dazo said, is that we agreed last month that all proposals should not exceed 500 USD. At least for a while. We have really great proposals and the ideal was to embrace all.
What I suggest you is something that the creative DAO suggested us today, to make monthly proposals.
Well, since the 15 World Art Day is celebrated is on the 15th of April, the ideal would be to ask for 500USD now, and for 500USD next month.
So, let’s thing that your proposal starts on 03/01/2022 and ends on 30/04/2022. So, you will work during to moths and could 500 USD march and April.

In the worst case scenario you would receive before working and then when the work is finished.

I hope you understand our position.
greetings,
Thais
