The exhibition has been curated by Ian Sergeant.
This exhibition is possible with strategic investment by the Arts Council England’s Elevate fund.
This exhibition presents the art work of Schwarm members selected by the Ort Gallery directors Ridhi Kalaria, Ian Sergeant and Josephine Reichert. It celebrates the contribution of artists at all stages in their careers and promotes the creative talent from Birmingham and beyond. Ort Gallery is committed to supporting artists and providing professional development opportunities. As Schwarm members the artists benefit from peer to peer learning, opportunities provided by our partners and volunteering as well as paid opportunities in the arts industry. We work with and for our local community and ensure we facilitate dialogue amongst people from all walks of life.
