Breeze Block Gallery curated by Sven Davis tackle a logistical nightmare bringing over 200 artists together in one show for their anticipated “Wider than a Postcard” exhibition. I guess if anyone could pull this off its them and what better way to get acquainted with 200+ artists than a show that allows even the introductory collector a chance at owning one of their favorite artists works. This is a collectors dream being able to view so many artists in one exhibition. Because these pieces are smaller and thus less expensive make sure you don’t miss out on owning a piece. The lineup covers many genres, styles and cities. A curatorial effort tackled by Sven that encompasses many rising and established contemporary artists. Here is a preview of images from the show, still only a small sample of the massive amount of work collected for this exhibition.

Wider than a postcard A group exhibition curated by Sven Davis:
Breeze Block Gallery Portland OR.
2 May – 1 June 2013
May 2013: Portland, Oregon is the location for Wider than a postcard, the latest curatorial collaboration between Arrested Motion’s Sven Davis and Breeze Block Gallery. Over 200 artists have been invited to produce up to 3 works each based on the traditional postcard format.
The surface can be an antique postcard – either from a thrift store or maybe even from the family archive, a new shop-bought card or a home-made postcard on each artists chosen medium to the 6×4 inch size limit imposed. Each postcard can either start as a blank canvas or the new composition can be woven into the existing image on the card. The artworks are to be displayed in a grid formation to create an holistic installation of more than 400 individual artworks.
The postcards must come from, and be named thus, a current or past place of residence and the thematic subtext is based loosely around place and belonging. The exhibition will also serve as a comparative survey of how artists interpret the same brief, giving a unique insight into the varying creative processes of each participant. The exhibition opens Thursday 2nd May 2013 6pm, with a preview evening on Wednesday 1st May 2013 6pm alongside olive47’s solo exhibition in Gallery 2
