We’re thrilled to welcome back Ryan Berkley to the gallery from October 5 – November 11, 2019.
Ryan is a self-taught illustrator best known for his detailed drawings of sophisticated animals.
This show is tentatively called Naked Animals and we can’t wait to see what Ryan has in store.
We’re taking a break after our successful 20th Anniversary Postcard Show to clean up the gallery and get ready for our October show.
The downtairs shop will remain open daily 10a-6p, but the upstairs gallery will be closed while we clean-up, paint and otherwise prepare for the future.
We’ve posted every single postcard from buyolympia’s 20th Anniversary Postcards show online. So if you aren’t able to come and see the show in person, you’ll be able to now browse it online!
Join us for a launch party, reading and presentation of Molly Mendoza’s new work Skip on Tuesday, July 23, 2019. Starts at 6pm, Reading and Presentation at 7pm.
In this epic tale of friendship, compassion and growth, Molly Mendoza’s stunning art and gripping storytelling immerses you in alternate worlds filled with mystical creatures and dazzling landscapes.
When Bloom is thrown from their world, and Gloopy is exiled from their own, the two youngsters find in each other a much-needed kindred spirit. But as they skip through dimensions and encounter weeping giants, alligator islands and topsy-turvy 2D worlds, they find that their greatest challenge will be facing their own fears back home.
We were blown away and humbled by the response to buyolympia’s 20th Anniversary show that we’ve decided to keep it up an extra month. There are over 500 postcards from many of the artists we’ve worked with and everybody who can deserves a chance to get lost in the show.
Land Gallery is open daily 10a – 6pm.
buyolympia.com started in 1999 as a way to help our friends sell things online.
Well, 20 years later, we’ve got a lot more friends.
We are doing a big group show and invited over 600 of our favorite artists to participate, and in the first couple days over 200 agreed to participate!
Each one will be sending us one or two postcards and we’ll fill the walls with their art.
The show will open on Saturday, June 29th from 2-6pm at Land Gallery — which is also celebrating a birthday this year — its 10th!
A Perception of Color and a Notion of Time
An exploration into the human recognition of color, this project is under the umbrella of Mike Vos’ Dead Cities photography series.
Vos has color vision deficiency and recognizes color differently than his camera does.
These images are an allusion to an individual’s interpretation of the world, not just in subject matter but through different areas in the spectrum of visible light.
This exhibition includes film photographs developed with a range of experimental techniques and processes that predict a world without humans.
Opening Artist Reception
Saturday, June 1 from 3-5p.
Show runs through June 16, 2019.
