8th Annual Juried Exhibition February 1-24, 2018

Gallery 110’s annual juried exhibition will showcase work by emerging and established artists. Our gallery location and reputation offer artists exposure to professional reviews, access to Seattle’s Pioneer Square gallery district and First Thursday Art Walk.

JUROR:

Sara Krajewski is the Robert and Mercedes Eichholz Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art at the Portland Art Museum. Arriving at PAM in 2015, Krajewski relaunched the Miller Meigs Series of Contemporary Art Exhibitions with Josh Kline: Freedom, a project at the intersection of technology, politics, and activism and organized the retrospective Andy Warhol: Prints from the Collections of Jordan D. Schnitzer and his Family Foundation. From 2012 – 2015 Krajewski was the Director of INOVA (Institute of Visual Arts) at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee where she curated an array of interdisciplinary exhibitions and performances with artists such as Xavier Cha, Mateo Tannatt, and Morgan Thorson. Krajewski was curator at the Henry Art Gallery, Seattle from 2004 – 2012 where she focused on solo artist projects (Matthew Buckingham, Andrew Dadson, Jeffry Mitchell, Walid Raad, among others) and group exhibitions exploring photography’s impact on visual culture (Image Transfer: Pictures in a Remix Culture and Viewfinder). Krajewski is the recipient of a 2012 Curatorial Fellowship from the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts for research into emerging transdisciplinary artistic practices. She has held curatorial positions at the Madison Museum of Contemporary Art and the Harvard Art Museums.
