Before you join
You don't need to have exhibited in Parallax Art Fair to join. If you haven't yet exhibited in Parallax Art Fair, you can apply here.
PAF SHOP does not operate like other online sites selling art and design. Firstly, as in our fairs, we take no commission from you. Some other online shops can be as high as 50% commission! We think that is unhelpful for artists and buyers. It costs £48 to join PAF SHOP. Secondly, there is a product-selection procedure. However, we do not select product-makers based on lengthy exhibition history or curriculum vitae but according to the individual pieces themselves. The works must be self-evident and lean towards the decorative in some way. Whatever you do, don’t confuse our selection procedure as a judgement on whether your work is good or bad. It is more about whether it is appropriate for selling online, which is a highly visual medium. For more detailed information about the philosophy and history of selection procedures in the arts, please obtain a copy of The Prescient and Ahistoric from PAF Shop.
