ART BLOG ART BLOG is extremely pleased to announce the opening of “LOVE” curated by Stephen Truax at One River River Gallery, Englewood, New Jersey.

ART BLOG ART BLOG is a curatorial project by Joshua Abelow. ART BLOG ART BLOG presented a two-part series of exhibitions at Gallery Diet, Miami, in 2012: Leave it to Beavers, curated by Gina Beavers, and ASTRAL WEEKS, curated by Van Hanos. In 2011, ART BLOG ART BLOG presented ten exhibitions at a temporary location on the 11th floor of 508 West 26th Street. The location was generously donated to Abelow by the painter, Ross Bleckner. artblogartblog.com

“Intitially the blog was a way for me to contextualize my own work alongside artworks and text by other artists and writers I was interested in, and it still is that. But, it’s also a way for me to curate in the simplest way possible. To call a gallery space a blog is something that had never been done before and I think it generated a lot of interest because of that simple gesture. It created an element of confusion – like what is ART BLOG ART BLOG – a gallery, a blog, or a website? And, for a temporary period, it was all three.” – Joshua Abelow joshuaabelow.blogspot.com
