Soft Comfort Forever Please

“Soft Comfort Forever Please”
Fabric Works by Mark Price

February 3 – 25, 2007
Opening Reception: Saturday, February 3, 8pm-12am

Padlock Gallery
1409 Ellsworth Street
Philadelphia, PA 19146

http://www.markpriceisafactory.com

Mark Price, a member of the Philadelphia based artist collective Space 1026, will be showing a body of hand silk-screen printed fabric works at Padlock Gallery in South Philadelphia during February 2007. Taking the form of stuffed ‘soft-monsters’, quilted blanket, and stretched fabric patchworks Mark will create an over stimulated environment populated with struggle, panic, decay, sickness, and blight by layering and deconstructing his print work over the past three years into a new context as tangible objects of comfort.

Mark Price has self-produced two books completely silkscreen printed by hand. He was the recipient of the Xeric Grant in 2006. He has shown his prints at Foundation Gallery in Chicago, Giant Robot in San Francisco, and Thinkspace Gallery in Los Angeles. Mark has also shown his work as part of Space 1026 at The Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco, The Magic Pony in Toronto, and The Institute of Contemporary Art in Philadelphia. He is 25 and lives in Philadelphia.

The Padlock Gallery is an ex-living room gallery space housed in a row home in South Philly. It holds monthly art shows for Philly-based artists as well as music events, film screenings, and more. The gallery was started in February 2004. The curator members include Charlie Cottone, Mike Fleming, Alina Josan, Molly McIntyre, and Ted Passon.

Locally Localized Gravity

“Hello God…are you there? Its us Space 1026.”

Space 1026 is spreading our signature visual chaos within the walls of the Institute of Contemporary Art as part of Locally Localized Gravity.

Come play with us! There will be awesome art, musical events, tshirt printing events and much, much more. Come to the opening on Friday, January 19th 6-8 pm at the Institute of Contemporary Art at the University of Pennsylvania at 118 South 36th Street, the exhibition runs January 20-March 25th, 2007.

The installation we have created is based loosely on the domain of the Ewoks, diminutive arboreal beings who share a communal space. Though they have yet to master advanced technology, they have nonetheless erected impressive villages high within the trees. Our “village” installation at the ICA, like that of the Ewoks use a combination of rope ladders to ascend, but ours are even better, because they are made entirely out of recycled shopping bags and refuse wood. Our Space 1026 team has braided over 800 feet of plastic rope and printed over 2,500 recycled cardboard shingles to create our massive tree house structure! A fantastic video kiosk tower, interactive electronics, campfire, a gigantic cardboard ziggurat, and a tree house gallery create a fantastical Utopian space specially after it was retouched by a local water damage restoration service. However, whether your carpets or fabrics need a little touch-up, this miami rug cleaning services can restore them! If you’re looking for the best carpet cleaning company, you can hire an expert, such as carpet cleaning phoenix, who will provide the best service for you. Carpet cleaning sacramento will give you the perfect solution that is safe and eco-friendly in its cleaning process to maintain the natural beauty of your carpet. Whether it’s residential or commercial carpet cleaning, Dan Dan The Carpet Man is the one to call.
