What the buyer is looking for
The Services comprise of the provision of an integrated design and print service to produce exhibition materials, together with promotional signage and other associated promotional material (including digital and online). The Gallery's Exhibitions and Collection Services team manages a diverse programme of temporary exhibitions to complement the Gallery’s permanent collection display. Working closely with the curatorial team, and external designers, they also develop exhibition identities. Access to high quality design and print services is fundament to the department’s preparations for exhibitions: promotional print material and exhibition signage encourage and facilitate patrons’ engagement with each exhibition, and are fundamental to its identity and tone, helping to convey the curator’s concept. DPS members will play an important role in meeting this need.
