SHE KEEPS ME DAMN ALIVE | Danielle Brathwaite-Shirley | 18 November - 19 February 2022

arebyte Gallery presents SHE KEEPS ME DAMN ALIVE, an exhibition by artist Danielle Brathwaite-Shirley that uses video games, animation, sound and voice to capture, preserve and archive Black Trans Existence. 

The exhibition uses the artist’s recent series of DOTCOM works blacktransarchive.com, blacktransair.com and blacktranssea.com as a starting point for furthering the archiving of Black Trans experience via interactivity and storytelling. The exhibition encompasses a new body of work that positions gaming at the forefront of ideas surrounding action, inaction, relation and archiving experience.⁠

SHE KEEPS ME DAMN ALIVE presents visitors with an immersive point-and-shoot style arcade game that asks them to question how their choices and actions (or inactions) affect others directly. The exhibition positions the player at the heart of a situation demanding a reflection, an action and ultimately a stance to protect the lives of Black Trans people. 

By taking part in the game the player also participates in forwarding the ideologies of the Black Lives Matter and Black Trans Lives Matters movements that took precedence worldwide during the pandemic. The movements speak of solidarity, honouring lives lost, and creating spaces where it is “easier for us to breathe”. These are recurring themes throughout the artist’s work and this show presents the power of holding space for memory and legacy. 

Danielle Brathwaite-Shirley says:

"This exhibition is my way of archiving. I am trying to build upon something real and expand it so that it can never be forgotten. I see archiving as a way of storing a person in the present so that future generations have something to look back on. Traditional archives have forgotten black trans existence so we need to build our own techniques to store bodies like ours. These have to come from us and be done by us."

On entering the gallery, visitors are confronted with a how-to-play guide that asks “Can you protect Black Trans people with a gun?” and requests them not to  “SHOOT BLACK TRANS PEOPLE”. This call to action forms the narrative of the game and is part of a larger framework to promote accountability surrounding the black trans community and beyond. It also suggests an alternative history of what arcade games could have been: an anti-violent gun game that questions the use of guns to prevent harm. 

Each player experiences a unique set of obstacles in their quest to protect the main protagonist on three separate levels; water, city and dungeon. The game forces each player to take ownership of their situation, whether they choose to play as a protector or destroyer, and whether they choose to centre themselves or another as the player. 

As SHE KEEPS ME DAMN ALIVE asks: “Do you think you have the power to protect others?”

In this unique work, the artist embraces the characters as if they share the same story. The smoky colors surrounding them seem to distance them from the edges of the painting to help them find a way to connect. This work was chosen by UNESCO as a design for their medical mask contest, among 250 works by artists from around the world. You can purchase the mask in our gift shop.

For about 20 years Karin Gier has been working with earth from the local open-cast mines, the surrounding area or on the road. Even found objects with traces of wear and weathering wander into her studio and are often part of paintings and assemblages.Karin Gier found her inspiration for the material and the “colours of the earth” through a workshop with Ilse Krause and by taking part in a guided tour of the Garzweiler open-cast mine in Grevenbroich. Since then she has been accompanied by the material, which symbolizes the cycle of life, the process of becoming and passing away. With great reverence she uses the different, grown layers of earth, which are revealed in open-cast mining landscapes. Every colour and texture of the earth, every find tells its own story, just like Karin Giger’s elaborately crafted layered, washed and (opened/broken) works.

Hermanos, 100x120, 2011, Acrylics on Canvas (Series "Love in Times of War")

“Love in Times of War’ is a specially commissioned collection of works uncovering experiences and feelings in relation to the Spanish Civil War. Personally, I felt quite affected and confused having my father’s family from a military background and my mother’s family being Republican. It caused me deep pain to feel a personal connection to so many deaths caused.

My research lead me to collate images that were closest to my idea of love in wartime. Amongst others, I found several relevant and iconic photographs by the photojournalist Robert Capa. I decided to use the images that moved me the most for my works, in a way similar to Andy Warhol in his pop art. At the same time I was reading the book ‘Psychomagic: The Sacred Trap’ by Alejandro Jodorowsky. His idea of Psychomagic is based on the belief that the unconscious can be healed from trauma by performing specific acts. The act of framing all my works with a heart in one way or another can be interpreted as an attempt to heal the pain that war has left in all of us.

The paintings tell us about a part of the historical memory of humanity. We all have relatives who have directly lived through the experience of a war, through the fear and pain. I am trying to help open a way of liberation from these experiences of the past, through and with the heart. The images represent, often dangerous situations where love always intervenes in one way or another, big or small. We should give the heart the opportunity to heal the pain that we carry from our past and step into a better future.

J.Kesin was born in Hamburg, Germany.

After receiving an MA in applied cultural studies, life events lead him to live in several countries.

Particular periods which influenced his art styles and concepts were his time in Russia and Uzbekistan during the early 90s with the opening up of the Central Asian republics. 

More recent influences come from his time spent in England and Spain.

Self-taught during his early years, he has gone on to train formally, to further expand his knowledge and develop his career as an artist.

Social sculpture by Juan Petry

“La exposición en el museo en la exposición…
The exhibition in the museum in the exhibition…
Die Ausstellung im Museum in der Ausstellung…”

MUARCO – the exhibition in the museum in the exhibition targets the new normal in museums and public art spaces. It questions the relation between the visitor, art producer and the important cultural entry museum, as well as questioning the market components and traditional roles. It also explores a new normal in the narrative of iconographic perception of the museum itself.
The artist becomes the facilitator of an art production space. The museum becomes the host of this space and the visitor becomes the creative expanding the art work. But all the components together are forming the art work itself. The museum transcended from a passive storage and source of academic dispute to a source of creation. Accepted art finally ends in the museum, and now the museum will be a highly recommended and important creator of the artwork and therefore of the contemporary arts.
The connection between the visitor / co-producer of the art work and the museum will also create the foundation of a long term relationship and improve the acceptance for the important role of the museum to evaluate and guard the culture of the society.

Juan Petry

"Amazing citizens" 100x 70 cm, Acrylic on Canvas

Juan feels truly European and he works and lives in several countries that are all home to him. He believes that the unifying identity of the future Europe will be created through its cultural diversity, and that this new identity could provide a utopian blueprint for other parts of the world.

With art being a central part of the concept of culture the aim of Juan’s art is to visualise this identity now, thus helping to advance the process of identity creation.

Juan is the founder of the gallery Casa del Dragon and of the European art network EL-DRAC. More recently he started the first colour garden, as part of sevengardens.eu, a UNESCO certified project in Spain.

Eclipse, 100x120cm, Acrylic on canvas

Sonia’s work is framed within abstract symbolism. Her main theme brought her to the circle as a universal symbol, and the encounter between the aesthetic philosophy of western and eastern discourse.

The sphere is the compositional figure that contrasts with other bodies in the complementary game of opposites.

She has a strong interest in philosophy and oriental arts, I Ching, Tao Te King Lao Tse and Sumi-e technique, all of which has influenced her concepts and style as an artist.

Sonia studied art at the Universidad de Bellas Artes Sant Jordi in Barcelona and her work has been shown in France, Spain and Germany.

Meditacion I - Acrylics on Canvas, 50x70cm, 2019,

Sonia’s work is framed within abstract symbolism. Her main theme brought her to the circle as a universal symbol, and the encounter between the aesthetic philosophy of western and eastern discourse.

The sphere is the compositional figure that contrasts with other bodies in the complementary game of opposites.

Each of Sonia’s current works is a compositional game between the simplicity of the circle and the organic complexity of colours and landscapes.

Eve Leibe Gallery presents "Sending Up A Flare," a solo show by Sally Scopa. Scopa's paintings contain shimmering, flame-like marks that generate a sense of tension and barely-controlled chaos. Elaborately rendered gilt frames border many of her paintings, threatening to overwhelm the tiny painted scenes within. Meanwhile, her paintings of hearths, windows, and houses on fire combine domestic and natural imagery, addressing themes of disruption, transformation, and the complexity of contemporary life.

Sally Scopa (b. 1990, San Francisco, CA) is an artist currently living and working in San Francisco. She holds a Masters in Art Practice from Stanford University and a Bachelor in Visual & Environmental Studies at Harvard University. She recently ended a residency at Cité Des Arts International Studio Residency, Paris and SOMA Summer, Mexico City. She recently showed at Plumaje, Biquini Wax EPS, Mexico City and Axis 14th National Juried Exhibition, juror Amy Owen, Axis Gallery, Sacramento.

_Fractured Beauty: The Elegance of Imperfection_ is a curated group exhibition at Bushwick Gallery, taking place from **October 23–30, 2025**. This exhibition invites artists to explore the aesthetic and emotional resonance of imperfection—flaws, breaks, asymmetries, and unresolved forms. Rather than seeking polish or precision, we’re looking for work that finds meaning in vulnerability, irregularity, and tension. Whether literal or abstract, minimal or maximal, selected pieces will reflect the quiet power of what’s broken, incomplete, or in flux.

This opportunity is part of Bushwick Gallery’s ongoing commitment to showcasing thoughtful, provocative work that reflects the complexity of contemporary life. Previous exhibitions have explored themes such as emotional duality (_Love and Heartbreak: A Duality_), transformation (_Metamorphosis_), urban identity (_Urban Narratives: The City as Canvas_), psychological landscapes (_Specters of the Subconscious_), and ecological urgency (_Echoes of the Earth_). Each show is presented in our Brooklyn gallery space, situated in the heart of Bushwick’s creative community.

Selected artists will have their work exhibited in person and promoted to our growing network of collectors, curators, and press. The exhibition will open with a public reception on **Thursday, October 23, from 6 PM to 8 PM**.

This is a chance to join a growing roster of artists pushing boundaries and redefining beauty in contemporary art.

Space Dimensions: 3.5 feet wide by 7 feet high (1.07 meters wide by 2.13 meters high) Included Services: Promotion of your artwork on our website and social media channels. Invitations to the exhibition emailed to our extensive mailing list of collectors and art lovers. Professional installation of your artwork. Insurance coverage up to $10,000 per artwork while on the premises. Photos of the opening reception shared on our website and social media.

**Open Call: October 2025 — Fractured Beauty: The Elegance of Imperfection**

**Bushwick Gallery is now accepting submissions for the upcoming group exhibition Fractured Beauty: The Elegance of Imperfection**, running from **October 23 to October 30, 2025**. This exhibition challenges conventional ideas of perfection by embracing dissonance, irregularity, and the allure of the broken or incomplete.

Artists are invited to submit works that explore the quiet power of imperfection—whether through fragmented forms, raw textures, disrupted symmetry, or unexpected beauty found in chaos. All visual media will be considered.

The exhibition will open with a reception on **Thursday, October 23, from 6 PM to 8 PM**.

This is an opportunity to share work that resists polish and speaks instead to authenticity, vulnerability, and complexity.

Fascinating Figures | 10th Figurative Art Competition | TERAVARNA

_Vivid Force: The Power of Bold Color_ is Bushwick Gallery’s final group exhibition of the 2025 season—an electrifying celebration of color as both language and force. Running from **November 13 to November 20**, this exhibition centers on works that harness the energy of saturated hues to evoke strength, motion, emotion, and intensity. From the heat of crimson to the calm of ultramarine, color becomes the protagonist—unfiltered, direct, and unforgettable.

We invite submissions across all visual disciplines from artists who use bold color as a central element in their practice. Whether through abstraction, portraiture, mixed media, or installation, the goal is to showcase work that does not whisper but declares—works that pulse with presence.

As the closing group show of the year, _Vivid Force_ caps off a dynamic season of exhibitions at Bushwick Gallery, following powerful showcases like _Urban Narratives_, _Fractured Beauty_, and _Motion, Endurance, and Expression_. This final exhibition offers artists the opportunity to make a lasting impact as the year draws to a close—both in our Brooklyn space and online via Vault, our curated digital platform.

The exhibition opens with a public reception on **Thursday, November 13**, from 6PM to 8PM. Selected artists will be promoted across our gallery network, included in our press outreach, and celebrated as part of Bushwick Gallery’s boldest visual statement of the year.

The Baltic Gallery of Contemporary Art (BGSW) is a cultural institution of the Pomeranian Provincial Government, whose mission is to promote contemporary art. BGSW has three showrooms: the Witches’ Tower, the Small Gallery located in Słupsk and the Centre for Creative Activities in Ustka. Baltic Art Gallery in Ustka was established in 1987 and located in the historic grain store. In 2013, it changed its name to the Centre for Creative Activities. The change of the name and image was the result of the implementation of a project called the Comprehensive Development Programme for the Baltic Gallery of Modern Art – the Establishment of the Centre for Creative Activities in Ustka. The Centre for Creative Activities is the result of a complete modernization of the facility where until recently only a part of the area was occupied by the Baltic Contemporary Art Gallery. Currently, the entire granary went in the possession of the Baltic Gallery of Contemporary Art. It is the first centre of its kind in Poland and one of the few abroad. After rebuilding the Centre for Creative Activities has gained some well-equipped studios of sculpture and ceramics and computer graphics and film. The Centre for Creative Activities also has an auditorium and an exhibition hall. Modern fitted hotel with cafe facilities is prepared to accommodate the artist-in-residence stays. From the artistic stays mainly benefit artists from abroad. 

The Centre for Creative Activities is a place of interdisciplinary activities for a broad range of visual arts. Here are realized film projects, music, theatre and performances. The Gallery invites the outstanding artists from Poland and abroad.  Another task of the Baltic Contemporary Art Gallery (BGSW) is educational activities aimed at broadening the audience of contemporary art in all age, and the preparation of active recipients of contemporary art through a direct participation in it. We offer many attractive forms of education, among other things: lessons about art, lectures, workshops, panel discussions, film screenings and more. An important part of the educational activities are lessons and lectures organized for children, high school students, college students and adults. Within this framework are also held workshops conducted by artists whose aim is to familiarize the viewer with various technologies and media used by contemporary artists.

Description of the residency program: 
Residences are international; artists are invited from Poland and abroad. The preferred projects of artistic residencies relate to art in public space, a socially engaged art. We invite above all artists who work in the public space, involving the local community. During their residencies the artists should refer to the place where they are, that is to a small seasonal village, making (if possible) the local community to commit in their work. The final result should be the joint work of the artist and local inhabitants. The program is cyclical. Duration of residence from 2 months. Each artistic stay ends with a summary and a public presentation of the work’s effect in the form of an author’s meeting, self-presentation or exhibition. 

BGSW provides accommodation in the Centre for Creative Activities and the use of the laboratory of photography, film, sculpture and ceramics workshop and the lecture hall (including the possibility of the presentation of creative work). The organizer offers single and double rooms with access to kitchen, dining room and laundry. At the request of a resident, he or she will receive support during any installation work.

We are offering a grant of 200 USD to artists worldwide focusing on social justice themes. This grant is dedicated to Donia Abu Mohsen, a 

12-year-old girl who was murdered by Israel this past year. 

Donia had both legs amputated and was receiving treatment in Nasser hospital after she was injured when her house was bombed, killing her family. While recovering, Israel bombed the hospital killing her. 

“The shell penetrated the ceiling and directly hit her. " Al Jazeera quotes Dr Mohamed Zakout of Nasser Hospital in the southern city of Khan Younis as saying.

Just before her untimely death, during an interview with Al Jazeera she said “I hope to be a doctor to help people. Now, my life is changing. They have gone. I am alone now without them. I was connected to this life because I was very much connected to my mother, father and siblings who died. But I must continue despite the fact that I will never forget them.” 

​

While Donia will never have the opportunity to pursue her dream of becoming a doctor, we hope our modest grants will encourage artists from around the world to remember her story and pursue their own dreams. . 
  
  
Submit your portfolio to be considered for the grant. Include your artwork images and a brief biography showcasing your work in social justice themes. We look forward to reviewing your submissions.

Artists must demonstrate a strong commitment to social justice in their work. The selection process will be thorough and fair. The grant has a rolling deadline, so you may apply at any time. Please allow 4 weeks for a reply. Thank you.
