We also have listings in all the Bristol publications including Venue magazine, The Bristol Magazine and Metro and send listings to the Independent and Guardian newspapers.

What we ask people to do is send in an exhibition proposal. In which we ask for the following:
1. Brief description of proposed exhibition (with title and favoured dates)

Centrespace on Facebook PDF Print E-mail
Friday, 21 November 2008

We have just created a Facebook site. We're hoping to link up with all the other art institutions in Bristol and use the site as a way to promote the gallery, publicise events and exhibitions and provide a forum for your views and links to your work.

Our Facebook page is run by Nikki Lee, who has been a part of the gallery on a voluntary basis for a two years. Her large abstract paintings have been widely exhibited around Bristol and beyond.

The Bristol Art Show PDF Print E-mail

CANCELLATION OF THE 2009 BRISTOL ART SHOW.

DUE TO UNAVOIDABLE, UNFORSEEN CIRCUMSTANCES WE REGRET THAT WE HAVE HAD TO CANCEL THE BRISTOL ART SHOW. DO NOT FEAR, HOWEVER, WE HAVE PLANS TO COME BACK FIGHTING WITH SOMETHING EVEN BIGGER AND BETTER THAN BEFORE.

The Bristol Art Show started in 2006 as a response to the British Art Show’s arrival in Bristol with a conspicuous lack of actual Bristol artists. After brief discussions amoung the members of the Centrespace Committtee, the Bristol Art Show was born.

The Flagship event at Centrespace and run by the Gallery Committee of professional artists and our brilliant volunteers the Bristol Art Show is open to anyone with a BS postcode the Gallery Committee annually produce a show of an extremely high standard, which grows in strength year on year.

In 2009 we have a slightly different show in mind, open submissions with a twist! There are several sponsored prizes on offer, first prize being a week - long solo exhibition at the gallery. 2007's winner, Sarah Cocking, exhibiting with Alice Hodge, had a fabulous mixed media show entitled ‘Clean’ which pulled in national newspaper coverage including an article in the Guardian by photographer Martin Parr.

 

Our 2008 Centrespace Prize winner was Rose Popay this year with her fantastic film 'Reform with Rose Popay'

Centrespace is a not for profit, mainly volunteer run, independent exhibition space to rent in central Bristol, situated along the historic city walls. The ethos of the gallery is to show fresh and interesting work with a preference for encouraging up and coming artists.
