WHO WE ARE
|
Bridge Productions is a Seattle-based exhibition platform focusing on process-based work and projects by artists, curators, writers, and performers. We offer a broad range of engaged projects including visual art exhibitions, publications, happenings and activations, curatorial collaborations, and curated box sets. Functioning as a hybridized space that is both experimental and for-profit, our dexterity fosters integrity and rigorous exploration of artistic work and concepts. We collaborate with emerging and mid-career artists, writers, and curators to create a local and national context for their work; building community and a tangible connection to the arts for our guests across the Pacific Northwest and the US. Through partnerships across multiple locations in Seattle and beyond, we provide a venue which creates the opportunity for artists, makers, patrons, and supporters to convene in celebration and support of the arts. |
HISTORY
|
Bridge Productions was founded in 2010 by Sharon Arnold as an online gallery featuring our curated box sets: a handmade wooden box containing two original artworks by two different artists, paired with a literary publication. In 2012 we opened our brick and mortar location, (dba) LxWxH Gallery, where we continued exhibiting sets alongside monthly publications, events, and exhibitions in our Georgetown space. After a brief hiatus in 2015, we reopened across the hall in 2016 with greater determination to expand our practices beyond the traditional role of the white cube space. Today we continue to feature work by artists, writers, and curators from Seattle, Portland OR, San Francisco, LA, Chicago, and New York in a broad range of mediums from drawing, painting, and sculpture to installation, video, and performance. |
