The purpose of GRIDSPACE is to provide an architecturally and sculpturally specific curatorial outlet that engages the rapidly changing neighborhood of northern Crown Heights. The non-traditional storefront gallery is in the front window of Charles Goldman’s studio. The “space” itself is a wooden grid of 12 individually lit 2 foot square by 8 inch deep “cubicles,” custom built to fit into the specially designed storefront.

The inaugural exhibition is a yearlong exhibition, involving 12 solo and 1 group show (which will include works by different combinations of the initial 12 artists.) The year will begin with the group exhibition.  Unscheduled programming will continue in the space throughout the year. The solo exhibitions will be as long or as short as deemed necessary by each participant.

GRIDSPACE is open during the receptions for each exhibition, where it exists as an expanded exhibition space. The exhibition continues to be visible through the window of the storefront gallery for the allotted period of time, 24 hours a day.

GRIDSPACE’s first year will include solo exhibitions by Mark Essen, Amanda Wojick, Micah Lexier, The Reanimation Library, Allyson Strafella, Jocko Weyland, Theater of the Two Headed Calf, Jason Middlebrook, Bob Seng / Lisa Hein, Kathryn Spence, TRYST and Alix Lambert / Oliver Wasow.

GRIDSPACE is located at 112 Rogers Avenue, between Park and Sterling in northern Crown Heights. Take the 2, 3 or 4 to Franklin. Direct any inquiries to cg@cgwk.net.
