contact:  Scott Chasse, Community Arts Coordinator

The annual South Boston Open Studios event on Saturday & Sunday,
November 5 & 6, invites the public to tour the studio spaces of
Southie. Each year, over six-hundred visitors get a behind-the-scenes
look into these unique converted warehouse buildings where artists and
craftspeople have been setting up shop for decades. More than 50
participants will be on hand for questions and conversations as they
showcase works in progress and finished pieces. Guests will be able to
talk to and make purchases directly from the artists while exploring
the neighborhood. This weekend-long affair also provides a great
opportunity to sample many of historic South Boston's restaurants,
cafes, pubs, and retail shops.

Participating locations and galleries include The Distillery (which
offers two galleries and over 40 artists) located at 516 East 2nd
Street, and the studios at King Terminal, just a few blocks away at
110 K Street & 574 E 1st Street (right next to the intersection of E
1st & Summer St).

The event is free to the public, rain or shine, noon to 6pm each day.
Public transportation is easy, take the Red Line to the Broadway stop
and walk East, or take the #7 City Point bus from South Station to
Elkins St (#7 does not run on Sunday). Locations are within walking
distance of each other and a map of the neighboring venues is
available on the official event website:

Make it Together













August 25 – September 27, 2011
Opening Reception: August 25, 7-9pm

The confines of the artist’s studio allow the artist to focus, free of distractions, on the creative process. Both a place of solitude and freedom, the studio is where ideas come to fruition and the sometimes messy practices of art making are of little concern in regards to the space. The studio, however, with all of its usefulness, can also be limiting.
In an attempt to address the notion of isolation within one’s studio, The Distillery Gallery has challenged a group of artists to produce works beyond their normal individual control. “Make it Together” asks artists to collaborate with one or more fellow artists on individual pieces, thus surrendering complete authority by any one contributor. The results will be unique to each pairing and will encourage the participants to take risks they otherwise do not take in their routine individual processes.
“Make it Together” will feature collaborative works involving:
Hilary Alder, Gulay Apley, Aimee Belanger, Walter Crump, Alison Davis, Pat Falco, Josh Falk, Elizabeth Grammaticas, Stephen Holding, Vanessa Irzyk, Meredith Iszlai, AD Jacobson, KDONZ, Cassandra Long, Eric Love, Kenji Nakayama, Elizabeth Nicholson, Adam O’Day, Shana Paleologos, Danielle Spurge, Joshua Taylor, Nick Ward, and Dana Woulfe.
Please join us for the opening reception on Thursday, August 25, from 7-9pm.

PRESS RELEASE: DYSTOPIA FILTER
SECTION 440, BROOKLYN NEW YORK
March 5th, 2011; 9pm

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

SECTION 440 in Brooklyn, New York is pleased to announce the opening of  DYSTOPIA FILTER ; a multimedia exhibition curated by Brooklyn-based artist and designer Stephen Holding. Featuring the works from over 20 different artists from the United States and abroad, the second installment of DYSTOPIA FILTER functions as a cross-section of contemporary art and design, fusing elements of sculpture, painting, photography, installation and music into an immersive environment of shifting sound, form and color. The collective works of this exhibition narrate the cyclical process of filtering out elements from our environment and re-contextualizing them through our own collective vision. These works then live on and redefine our surroundings, setting the stage for the process to begin again. It is through this constantly overlapping process that we change each other, our environments, and ourselves.

DYSTOPIA FILTER CONTRIBUTING ARTISTS

Stephen Holding, Debbie Allen, Adam Amengual, Marion Bolognesi, Dark Cloud, Naomi Cohen-Thompson, Gregory De La Haba, Jose Dennis, Addie Dowd, Evoker,
Josh Falk, Kevin Filliter, Alex Hansen, Ryan Lombardi ( Enamel Kingdom ), Jon Mildenberg, Fish McGill, Nathan Nadeau, Brandon Neubauer, Kenji Nakayama, Nicholas Olmstead, Suko Presseau, Jordan Seiler, John Siers, Linsey Wallace, and Nick Z. Music by Nicholas Chop.

ABOUT SECTION 440

SECTION 440 is a 1500 square foot living, working, and exhibition space located in Southside Willimasburg, Brooklyn.

Wootini Gallery Roadshow & New Gallery Space Opening

Opening reception - Friday, September 3rd, 7 - 11pm
September 3 through September 30th, 2010

Carrboro, NC (August 23, 2010) - Wootini Gallery is excited to announce the opening of the Wootini Gallery Roadshow, a group exhibition of work from artists from the Wootini Art Tour, curated by Jess Wootini (aka "Team Sweet"). For two weeks this summer, Jess hit the road, traveling to Raleigh, NC; Philadelphia, NYC; Boston, MA; Chicago. IL; and Las Vegas, NV meeting artists along the way, interviewing them, snapping photos and collecting art to bring back to Carrboro. Because the participating artists range in backgrounds from street artist to photographer, the final art show will be an engaging, fun exhibition with a diverse body of artwork. The Roadshow will feature everything from mixed media work to handmade plush figures. As an added bonus to all of those who come to the opening reception, Boston-based artist, Evoker will be in attendance, doing some live painting around the gallery. Evoker is one of three Roadshow artists in Project SF, an impressive international art collective that produces innovative artwork seen around the world.

The opening of the Wootini Gallery Roadshow also marks the grand opening of Wootini's new gallery and storefront location at 101 Lloyd St, a building that currently houses The Merch and MiniCassette Tees, and at one time was the Carrboro Jail.
