Chicago Sculpture International (CSI) is calling for artists who are enrolled, or recently graduated from a degree-seeking program, to submit works of sculpture, installation, and media work to be featured in the juried group exhibition "By Degrees IV" at the CSI Project Space Gallery in Chicago.

Artists can submit up to 2 works for consideration. Other media work can be shared via URLs to a hosting site. Accepted artwork must be able to fit through a normal-sized single-door storefront. Cost for shipping work to the gallery, as well as return shipping of unsold work, is the responsibility of the artist. Applicants must be currently enrolled in or have recently (2024 or later) completed a degree-seeking program. Accepted artists who are not CSI members will be granted a one-year non-transferable student membership to CSI.
 
No submission fee. This call is not limited to students and graduates of Chicago-area institutions, but accepted artists will be required to gallery sit for at least one 4-hour shift during the run of the exhibition.
