Portal 2017 in SOHO

 

OPENING RECEPTION  •  May 3rd  •  6-9pm 

Portal, featuring dozens of artists, will be open to the public May 3-8 in the SOHO neighborhood of NYC at 435 Broome Street, NYC (between Broadway and Crosby).
Following its successful inaugural edition in 2016, Portal will return in a new location in Soho. Open to the public from May 3 – 8, 2017, Portal will transform the 2000-square-foot street level gallery at 435 Broome Street into vibrant artist space with the work of approximately 30 artists from the U.S. and abroad. Featured artists were selected through both an open call and an invitational process geared toward artists who have previously shown with 4heads—the nonprofit responsible for organizing Portal as well as Governors Island Art Fair.

Exhibiting Artists

2017_portal_exhibiting-artist
This year’s artists are a mix of abstract and representational makers, working across a diversity of disciplines, including photography, painting, sculpture, sound, and mixed media installation. All of the work in Portal was chosen by 4heads co-founders Antony Zito, Jack Robinson, and Nicole Laemmle, with an eye toward creating dynamic juxtapositions and highlighting the diversity of artistic approach and technique among today’s working artists.

As with GIAF, featured artists exhibit for free, and no admission to the fair will be charged, to encourage a wide array of individuals to participate as either exhibitor or viewer. Portal provides a new opportunity to experience the work of dozens of artists in a week teeming with activity, and to reignite interest in the city’s architecture andhistory.
