Bluedog Gallery

When it comes to art, I always am drawn to something a little different, without being too alternative. I would describe the art and the goals of Bluedog as contemporary and clean, whilst also being that little bit different.
They were exhibiting a nice range of mediums and I was particularly impressed by the ceramic and jewelry collections on my visit. A lot of the work would make a great present for a significant other, but the price tags would mean that you wouldn’t be buying for a random acquaintance.
Whilst not everything I saw at the time was Polish related, I chatted briefly to the owner, who told me that she tried to showcase Polish inspired and produced work (she grew up there). The gallery is not that large, but you don’t feel pressured to buy or be knowledgeable while you are there.
It suits Brighton down o the ground and I would highly recommend it, should you wish to add a focal point to a room that is guaranteed to draw positive comment.

The artwork in Bluedog Gallery was a mix of glass, ceramic design, painting and sculpture. Pieces done by several different artists were on display around the small gallery, with a brief bio of each designer posted near his or her work.
While some art galleries are intimidating, I found this one quite comfortable to look around in, as I was greeted warmly upon entering and then left to peruse at my leisure. Some of the glass designs were wall hangings, others were smaller figurines or pieces of jewellery. Several large sculptures set along the floor — one of my favourites was a large sculpture of a woman’s head done by Warlikowska.
According to Bluedog’s website, their exhibits focus mainly on contemporary Polish Artwork. More information on the artists can be found there.
