(Artist Trading Cards)

Breakneck Gallery

17020 Madison Ave. Lakewood, Ohio 44107

Opening & Artist Reception: Saturday, April 20th, 6pm-10pm

Show runs from April 20th through May 11th

Artist trading cards (or ATCs) are miniature works of art about the same size as modern trading cards or 2.5 by 3.5 inches. We at Breakneck gallery asked as many local artists as we could to make  as many small pieces of art as they could so we could pack our gallery with great and affordable art.

The ATC movement developed out of the mail art movement and has its origins in Switzerland.

There will be an opening reception Saturday April 20th from 6pm-10pm with food, drinks, and as always ART!

There will be a 21+ after party held at the Spitfire Saloon 1539 W.117th St.

This is a call out to any artists interested in participating in the Artist Trading card show opening april 20th. We want to fill our walls with as many pieces of work by as many local artists as we can.

Opening Reception: Saturday March 2nd, 6pm to 10pm

After party at the Spitfire Saloon (the corner of franklin and 117th)

“The Evil Ohio exhibition is a look at Ohio’s dark side. A recent wave of boosterism seeks to point out the many positives of the state, and that’s excellent, but as there can be no light without darkness, there can be no sweetness without the sinister. Ohio is one of the USA’s richest states in folklore, haunted bridges and buildings, serial killers, and other dark arcana, and Evil Ohio aims to call attention to that.

The Evil Ohio exhibition intends to collect some of the finest of Ohio’s artists, depicting views of what they find compellingly dark about their home state. It means to showcase the time, focus, dedication, insight and imagination put forth by the members of Ohio’s creative communities.”
