Other Possible Titles, A Juried Exhibition

November 2011

Your vote matters -- Visit us during gallery hours to vote on your favorite work!

Grizzly Grizzly is pleased to present our inaugural call for entries, ‘Other Possible Titles,’ a survey of contemporary art juried by the members of the collective. The thirty-five artworks selected  -- culled from nearly 250 submissions -- represent the wide range of artistic strength and thoughtfulness we witnessed from our artistic peers throughout the process.

By far our largest exhibition to date, ‘Other Possible Titles’ will utilize the entirely of the gallery and spill out into the  adjoining floor.  Although incredibly divergent in media, the work on a whole demonstrates a particular intelligence and awareness of material and play within contemporary practices – whether it be through installation, photography, sculpture, video, or painting and drawing.  Selected artist locations range from Philadelphia to New York, Ypsilanti to Los Angeles, Barcelona to Ireland.

Throughout the duration of the exhibition, Grizzly Grizzly will encourage visitors to vote on their favorite work.  The artist receiving the most votes will receive a solo exhibition in the 2012 gallery season.

Our hope with this exhibition is to extend the boundaries of the call for entries group exhibition through risk and audience engagement.  Grizzly member and exhibition programmer, Jacque Liu, states that, “Our gallery is a meeting-ground for dialogue.  We know that our viewers see vast amounts of art  -- by giving them the ability to determine a future show, we hope to leverage their knowledge, experience and passion to help us define our audience and in turn, to create a deeper and more meaningful relationship to the work.”
