Gallery: Initially founded in mid 2020 under Prince and Fox, LLC, Gallery B612 aspires to be a gathering place for artists, dancers, fashion designers and creatives from all walks of life. To this date, the gallery has featured a Solo Exhibition from founder and curator, MiYoung Margolis and served as a gathering place and rehearsal space for MMDC and Dare to Dance.

Gallery B612 is a literary reference to Asteroid B612 in Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s book The Little Prince. Gallery B612 is our “art planet,” our gallery and studio, in the Seattle SODO neighborhood.

We believe it’s important to provide space for artists to share their voice in a physical representation where others can view and discuss the pieces as well as mingle with each other. In our modern American world, there are less and less public spaces for people to spend their free time. Here, we will hope to provide safety and connection for the Seattle community.

Exhibition: The Freedom Exhibition will highlight and explore its significance in various contexts. We want to present a thought-provoking commentary on the importance of freedom in shaping our lives and society or at an individual level. We are open to a diverse range of artworks that explore the theme of personal freedom and self-expression as well as different aspects presented through political, social, and personal freedoms. We are open to artworks including paintings, sculptures, installations, and photographs created by both established and emerging artists.

As we know, personal freedoms are defined by individuals through various avenues, such as financially, religiously, politically, and through personal expression, including the freedom of thought, expression, and creativity and following your own path to happiness. Some examples of important impacts of freedom in our history are Juneteenth and June 20th’s World Refugee Day. With the access to freedom, we are reminded of the power of imagination and the role of artistic expression in fostering individualism and personal growth.

From paintings to sculptures, each piece will portray a unique perspective on the theme, offering visitors a glimpse into the diverse ways in which freedom can be interpreted and represented. It offers a powerful reminder that freedom is not just a political ideal but a fundamental human right that must be defended and protected.
