Hellion Gallery One Year Anniversary Show

It has been an incredible first year for Hellion Gallery. 2011 included monthly shows in Portland, an earthquake relief show in Tokyo, a Portland pop up shop and art show in Tokyo, a comic con event in San Diego, a Blaine Fontana TedX installation at Concordia University and the opening of Hellion Gallery South in San Diego, California.
To celebrate, Hellion is having some of its favorite artists participate in its One Year Anniversary Show. Each artist was given a panel of wood in the shape of the numeral one to create a custom piece for the show. The One Year Anniversary Show will also be the first show in Hellion’s new space. The new, much larger space is one door down from the current space, in the same building.
Opening reception December 1, 2011 at 6pm
Show runs 12/1 until 12/30
Mon-Sat 12-7pm. Hellion Gallery 19nw 5th ave, suite 204. 2nd floor across from Ground Kontrol. Enter on 5th next to upper playground then right up the stairs.

Grass Hut & Hungry Eyeball present Balls Out Thee third

We did the first balls out show……. it was a blast. I was blown away to see some many top shelf artists in one room, and in the pacific northwest no less.
2+ years went by and we did balls out number 2. Blown away again. some new artists, some returning artists. My eyeballs are shooting rainbows into my head. Most people think it’s only been a year since the first one. Time flies when yer having fun.
One year later and now it’s annual for real. Balls Out thee third. 40+ artists from around the globe prepare to shatter your brain with killer paintings. All crammed into tiny ol’ Grass Hut.
My drive behind everything Grass Hut is to bring people together and show you stellar works of art. A chance for anybody in the pacific northwest to get close and personal with art we love.
Come celebrate rad art with us!

Artists Martin Ontiveros and Justin Lovato present “De Profundis”

Upper Playground In Association with FIFTY 24PDX Gallery Presents “De Profundis”, an exhibit of new paintings and installations by artists Martin Ontiveros and Justin Lovato.

Martin Ontiveros is an artist, rocker, metalhead, wizard, warrior, father, miscreant, grump, and good friend living and working in Portland, OR. “De Profundis” is Latin for “from the depths”, or “out from the depths of misery”. In Martin’s words: The feel for the show, at least on my end, is putting a face on some emotions/issues that have given me trouble over the years. Exposing their big, ugly, twisted heads. The first step to any change or recovery in one’s self is to be able to give a name to the root cause.

Justin Lovato is an artist from Sacramento, currently residing in Berkeley, CA. Lovato creates dreamlike, ethereal landscapes that reflect his thoughts on nature and our relation to it, human belief systems, the psycho-political-control system, multidimensional concepts, and esoteric symbolism.

Opening reception of “De Profundis” on First Thursday, October 7^th, 2010 from 6pm – 10pm.

DJ B-LiT will be playing tunes. Beverages courtesy of Red Hook.

“De Profundis” runs October 7^th – November 24^th, 2010.

Gallery hours are Sunday 12pm-6pm and Monday through Saturday 11am-8pm.

Upper Playground & FIFTY 24PDX Gallery is located at 23 NW 5th Ave., Portland, Oregon, 97209.
