Following on from the Space//Form exhibition i worked on last year with Breeze Block, I'm working with the gallery on curating their 2013/14 programme. A new gallery space has been built, so there will now be 2 exhibitions per month. We're starting off in May with olive47's solo show and a large scale group exhibition called 'Wider than a postcard' involving 200 artists. More details on those to come shortly, but I just wanted to share the details of the upcoming programme... 2013/14 PROGRAM CURATED BY SVEN DAVIS
ADDITION OF SECOND GALLERY SPACE Breeze Block Gallery is pleased to announce the next twelve months of programming curated by Sven Davis. We are also thrilled to be expanding into a second gallery space. Breeze Block will concurrently run two shows each month in Gallery 1 and Gallery 2.
Below is the official announcement of our line-up for the next twelve months:Breeze Block Gallery 2013/14 by sven / a million pieces, on Flickr PREVIEW INQUIRIES To be added to the preview list for any or all of the above shows, please email Paige, paige@breezeblockgallery.comBreeze Block Gallery www.breezeblockgallery.com

Cheers Highbrow. It's been a great experience putting the line up together so far. Our first shows open in a couple of weeks and i'm really looking forward to getting back to Portland. Hope that some local artchival members can make it out to the shows!

I'd suggest you mix in some female artists.

come say hi bluewater...
sideboob, you raise an interesting point. there is a significantly higher percentage of male artists. i hadn't noticed that previously, but it certainly isn't intentional. there are 3 solo shows with female artists above and 50 female artists being shown at the gallery this year within the group exhibitions. we also have shows scheduled way into 2014 and there are more female artists confirmed. as i say though, thanks for pointing this out - it's something i'll be more aware of.

Thought i'd update details about the september group show we have lined up as a few people have asked me about it... Buddy System Invitational is in part curated by myself, and in part curated by the artists... I asked 22 artists to participate and each make a 16x20 inch piece and an 8x8 inch piece. In turn they invited another artist to be in the show and make work of the same dimensions. Here's the line up listed with the primary artists alphabetically next to the buddy artists they invited: Andrew Schoultz - Gianluca Franzese Ben Venom - Megan Gorham Brendan Monroe – Anders Oinonen Chris Ballantyne – Rebecca Carino D*Face – Word To Mother Edwin Ushiro – Tessar Lo Erin Murray - Amze Emmons Evah Fan – Jen Corace Gary Taxali - Roman Klonek Greg Eason - Neil Riatt Hilary Pecis - Claire Colette Jeff Depner - Erin McSavaney Jessica Hess – David Young V Kai & Sunny – Russell Maurice Leah Mackin - Bonnie Brenda Scott Leigh Wells - Alex Zecca Lucy McLauchlan – Rich Jacobs Mark Dean Veca - Daniel Davidson Mary Iverson – Moneyless Rachell Sumpter - Jacob Magraw-Mickleson Sean Barton - John Radkte Scott Listfield – Matt Brackett PREVIEW INQUIRIES To be added to the preview list, please email Paige, paige@breezeblockgallery.comBreeze Block Gallery www.breezeblockgallery.com
