The Akron Art Museum is an art museum in Akron, Ohio. In 2021/22, we provided ongoing web development and support. We integrated the Qi collections management and Raiser’s Edge constituent relationship management systems into the Museum’s WordPress-based website. Additionally, we developed the Akron Art Mail multiformat publication using Quire.
Spellerberg Projects in print! We are mentioned in the December 2022 of Harper’s in relation to a piece by Raul Rene Gonzalez, whose show opens in February.
Kim Bishop is a nationally exhibited artist working from her San Antonio, Texas, based studio for the past 20 years. In her December exhibition, “In a Dark Room,” Bishop’s imagery focuses on the entanglement of body, time, and movement. She uses this imagery to create a holistic self-portrait that embodies universal themes.
Andrei Renteria eearned his BFA from Sul Ross State University in 2010 and his MFA at the University of Texas at San Antonio in 2015. His November exhibition, “2666,” incorporated mixed-media including drawing, painting, sculpture, and assemblage. The show expressed the experimental approach to material and research with which he investigates the U.S.-Mexico frontera.
Sara Corley Martinez was born in Frederick, Maryland, and received her MFA from the University of Cincinnati in 2011. Her October exhibition, “Drawing Restraints,” comprised a series of photographs and mixed-media sculptures. These pieces combine performance with the obstacles of motherhood, being an artist, and being an aging woman.
Spellerberg Projects is excited to announce a 6-month partnership with Clamp Light Studios & Gallery Director and resident artist Raul Rene Gonzalez. Beginning October 2022 and continuing through March 2023, Gonzalez will organize and curate solo exhibitions featuring San Antonio artists: Sara Corley Martinez, Andrei Renteria, Kim Bishop, Donovan Martinez, Barbara Felix, and Gonzalez. Each artist will exhibit recent and new works, responding to the space’s storefront gallery setting.

Jamie Panzer is an Austin-based artist. His July exhibition “Lyrical Space” displayed mixed media work reflecting his ongoing interest in recycling and rearranging found materials collected from his surroundings.
bradycollings is an interdisciplinary queer artist and drag queen from the piney woods of East Texas, currently pursuing an MFA in painting from Texas Tech. Their June exhibition, “do i not fill heaven and earth?“, translated meditations on nostalgia and voyeurism into objects and images.
This week at my gallery, Spellerberg Projects in Lockhart TX, we featured “Resistance Is…“, protest photography by Ursula Rogers. By exhibiting acts of solidarity in resistance to systematic oppression, Rogers reminds viewers of the power of the people.
