Modified Arts gallery in downtown Phoenix is one of the most popular art galleries in the area. It has always held it self apart and has been a staple of the Phoenix art scene for many years now. Over the years, Modified has been home to many different types of exhibits and shows. Phoenix+ is in a category all its own.

Phoenix+ is an experiment in social-curation, meaning anyone could be the curator. The exhibit called for artists, curators, and any art supporter to recommend someone else’s work. The experiment led to a wide range of contemporary works from local and regional artists, like Andrew Fallat, Eduardo L. Rivera, Jennifer Campbell, and Elysia Michaelsen, to name a few.

The exhibit opens March 16 and go until April 14. For more information click here.
