Not exhibitions like in art galleries :-). But they are very good at working with us. David Revoy has given presentations on Krita at events in Italy, and will visit LGM, as will Ramon Miranda. Timothee Giet has not only prepared the dvd, but has presented Krita at several occasions.

Strkingly, many of the artists are French: Deevad, Kargall, Animtim.

Digitally, but I chose pdf because then I can control the layout. Actually, the original impetus for this was the Hottest Picks review in Linux Format, which lacked nsight and especially screenshots. So I took the Corel Painter reviewer's guide as an example and created this pdf, with a guide to screenshots as well.

I see it useful in the following contexts:

* send out to journalists, reviewers, magazines and websites so they know what to write about & have good screenshots. But I'm sure I haven't got a good list of these

* print (in color...) for handouts at events everywhere

* use in KDE promotion whereever useful. 

Note: I can also provide dvd's (and comics, but I'm running out) for events, like I did for Carl and Ybit.
