OUR HISTORY
The intersection of writing and visual arts has always been at the core of everything we do. Bridge Productions was founded in 2010 by Sharon Arnold as an online gallery which was launched from a tiny tabletop in their 250 square foot apartment, producing 4-6 curated box sets per year and corresponding popup events at Vermillion on Capitol Hill.
From 2012 to the end of 2018, Bridge Productions was a brick and mortar space in the Georgetown neighborhood, where I and my collaborators expanded our scope beyond the traditional role of the white cube. While there, we focused on accessibility, interrogated the meaning and purpose of a gallery, and created a dynamic gathering place for a diverse array of programming. We featured everything from curated box sets, monthly exhibitions, publications, poetry readings, performances, and music to artist talks, panel discussions, informal/impromptu symposiums, safe space for protesters, and community-building as activism.
Today, while we no longer have a space or maintain a commercial model, we continue to feature an international array of artists, writers, and curators working in a broad range of mediums from drawing, painting, and sculpture to installation, video, and performance; using images, short-form writing, essays, and criticism.
