"I’ve been wanting to curate a show at The Annex Gallery for a while. Tucked away in the mini industrial complex (now artist’s studios) that is 333 Midland, the Annex is an audacious urban art space with its cavernous ceilings, cinder block walls, and a metal cat walk that circles the gallery high above the main floor creating a second gallery space with it’s own unique ambiance. While these artists have wildly different styles and aesthetics, I believe their art has what it takes to fill this imposing space with art that is big, bold, and uncompromising. (I might also add wonderfully strange, as in unwonted)."

(DETROIT, MI –March 11, 2023) 333 Midland’s Annex Gallery presents “Loose + Bound: a Celebration of Books + Art.” Works will be on display from March 11 - March 19, 2023. The exhibition will showcase artists who use books as a medium or inspiration in their creative practice. Handmade books, both traditional and unconventional, altered books, illustrations, works incorporating the written word, and more will be on display. The opening reception is Saturday, March 11, 4pm -9pm and features a live storytelling battle on manual typewriters with Keith Bergman and Amy Probst at 7pm. There will be a Book + Art fair on Sunday, March 12, 12pm-4pm, an Artist Chill + Chat on Saturday, March 18, 2pm-7pm, and a collage workshop with Teresa Petersen and Anne Harrington Huges on Sunday, March 19, 12pm-4pm.

Books transport to other worlds, elevate ideas, and spark insights. These creative works surpass the bounds of what is considered to be a book and loosen the imagination. Like a well-rounded bookshelf, the art may provoke many experiences, including amusement and sorrow, wonder and horror. Themes among the works include memory, family, mental health, and connections.
Curator and contributing artist Linden Godlove admires books and has been employed in libraries most of her life. “My own art in the show is a celebration of the wonder books can provide as well as a protest against current challenges to books.” She aspires to be an author and regularly submits for publication. She maintains a studio at 333 Midland and exhibits her illustrative art in local exhibitions.
