After mentioning Katy Horan’s featured work at Buy Some Damn Art earlier today, I noticed that Swarm’s Jillian Ludwig was mentioned earlier this week over at Art Hound, BSDA’s sister site. Head over there to scope Jillian’s work and to see a nicely curated selection of other great artists from all over!

Swarm’s Jeff Eisenberg is in a solo exhibition that opened in December at POVevolving Gallery in LA. The show, Convergent De-evolution, features new graphite drawings that “suggest multiple readings of a single image; friend or foe; decay or past.” Check it out before it comes down next weekend! Click through for images from the show.

People. Did you know we used to primarily answer to the name Swarm Studios? Have you checked out our studios lately? Because they are a really special component of the gallery that we’d love to share with the world.

Southern Exposure has a great show opening Friday, November 11, featuring Swarm’s Ethan Worden. The group exhibition, Working Conditions, features Ethan and 8 other artists working on process-based installations for the duration of the exhibit (through January 6th). More from SOEX about the show:Working Conditions is a process-based project featuring nine artists invited by Southern Exposure’s Curatorial Committee. Each artist creates his or her own work environment as installation within the gallery and keeps regular work hours there, while developing a project rooted in notions of production, labor, and process. Rather than working alone in their studios, the artists in this exhibition are obliged to interact with their environment as they operate in full view of the public in an open space they share with one another. Each artist will work at Southern Exposure for fifteen hours per week or more.
Opening reception is Friday, November 11, 2011, 7:00 pm – 9:00 pm. Hope to see you all there celebrating 11/11/11 the right way!

We can’t say we’re too suprised John Casey’s ambitious show, Tall Tales, was picked up this week by Hi-Fructose Magazine! The large-scale collaboration involving artists from all over the place (yeah, snail mail!) has garnered a lot of well-deserved attention only a week in to the show. If you haven’t already, come down soon and see the 70+ works for yourself (and check out the article here).
