Gallery + Studio

Current Exhibit: Art in the Information Age

Point.B Studio is an art gallery and Internet design studio located in the town of Port Orford, a picturesque fishing village and artist community on the southern Oregon coast. The gallery is a venue to highlight artists who incorporate some aspect of the Internet in their work, and explores where art, traditional design and new media intersect through onsite and online exhibits.

In 2009, Point.B kicks off a three-part exhibit entitled "Art in the Information Age" in September. Participating artists and engineers to date include Peter Fraterdeus, J.J. Ventrella, Martin Wattenberg and William Paul Gaetjens. http://memory.org/AITIA/findway.

Point.B Studio coordinates ongoing virtual exhibitions such as The Memory Palace Project. The site highlights the photography of resident exhibiting artists, including Lois Miller, Roy Rousseau, Catherine Buchanan, and Rebecca Hargrave Malamud http://memory.palace.org/.

Point.B Studio also sponsors The Rural Design Collective, a summer mentoring program designed to help motivated individuals begin a career on the Internet. http://ruraldesigncollective.org/.

The photographs above are published online in eSPG v2.0, an ongoing open source software project designed for presenting the collections of the photographers at Point.B Studio. The latest production version of the code gives a photographer the ability to post photos online, along with footnotes, comments, and maps showing the location where the photo was taken. The software is still under development, and the latest codebase can be found at http://www.invisible.net/.
