Vinegar curates expanded art projects in Birmingham, Alabama.
We believe that experimental and noncommercial art practices have heightened capacities to challenge and uplift our community. Our exhibitions emphasize unconventional formats: installation, video, new media, performance art, and social practice. We pay every artist a fair wage for their creative labor.
OPEN CALL FOR VIDEO ART
UPCOMING PROJECTS
We’ve stepped out of the white cube and into an expansive phase.
