ABOUT OPEN SPACE:

Open Space Baltimore began as a collectively run space in Remington in 2009, and has since included a core group of members with a rotating cast of friends, volunteers and interns rounding out the Open Space team. Open Space aims to provide an outlet for artists ranging from local to international and to provide a space where the Baltimore community can behold these artists’ work. We believe that a successful arts space develops and curates a wide variety in programming; allowing for an expansive range of ideas while simultaneously generating and maintaining a greater scope of community interests. Since its inception, the gallery has maintained an interest in exhibiting all types of media, genres, and ideas from a broad geographical scope; thus the title ‘Open Space’. Open Space has been host to painters, sculptors, printmakers, book-makers, video artists and performers from allover the United States, Germany, Belgium, China, and Chile. We are currently working to reopen the gallery at a new location.

IN CASE YOU HAVEN'T HEARD:

Open Space is pleased to announce an open application for the Fifth Annual Publications and Multiples Fair, taking place March 7-9 at the D Center (16 W North Avenue) in Baltimore, MD.

We are seeking independent publishers and artists working in multiple (books, prints, sculpture, music, video, etc), who will have the opportunity to display and sell work to an audience of viewers, artists, gallery owners, collectors, and librarians over the course of the weekend. This celebration and survey will be accompanied by related lectures and programs. Last year’s fair featured over 60 vendors, two days of programming, and a sweep of related art events. While keeping a focus on publications and multiples, we’re aiming to grow this weekend into a citywide function celebrating the work of the artists and spaces who contribute to our art community and beyond.
