Just a quick update here...
If you're around Detroit at all tonight or the coming weeks, stop by 4731 Gallery in Detroit to see the work of the Detroit Print Exchange. I joined the exhibit at the last moment and I'm honored to be included in the show. Below are some more details. I hope to see you there!
20 artists were selected for participation in a themed portfolio of works to be exhibited at the 4731 Gallery in Detroit. The portfolio features a myriad of traditional printmaking, photography and mixed media work. The Opening reception will feature live music by DJ SuperWill, light hors d'oeuvres and spirits by Detroit's own Valentine Vodka.
Chosen artists were notified in January of their selection and given three months to create work on the theme “ The time we cannot meet”. Tasked with creating an edition of 25 pieces for exchange, the show serves as a way to link artists regardless of geography, and build connections to the city of Detroit as an emerging art Capital. Chosen Artists hail from Tempe AZ, to Salthill Ireland and anywhere between.
The Detroit Print Exchange was established in 2012, by Andrew Hawkes as a way to build a community among like minded artists who were separated by geography. As a two-part exhibition in September the show moves to New York, announcement for those dates are coming soon. The exhibition is curated by Hawkes along with Sarah Ayers and NicholasMark.
4731 Gallery is located at 4731 Grand River Avenue Detroit, Michigan 48208. They are open Monday through Friday, 9:00am to 5:00pm and by appointment.
