Previews: “Wider than a postcard” @ Breeze Block Gallery

On the back of his Space//Form group exhibition last year (covered), Arrested Motion’s Sven Davis is working with Breeze Block Gallery in Portland again on another huge group event entitled Wider than a postcard. With over 200 artists and 400 individual works, this exhibition looks to be both bigger than the previous event and also smaller at the same time as all of the artworks are postcard sized at 6×4 inches. Each artist is either making work on a found / owned postcard and adapting / adding to it, or making their own postcard using the medium of their own choice.

With such a huge line up of artists, there’s sure to be something for everyone here, and the size of the artworks make them accessible to the budgets of most. The exhibition opens on May 2^nd in Gallery 1, and runs alongside a solo exhibition by Atlanta based street artist olive47 in Breeze Block’s newly created Gallery 2 space. Both shows run until June 1^st. Participating artists are as follows:
