I have recently established Gallery Gray please take a look:
The site has had over 2500 unique visitors from 24 different countries since its' debut and was mentioned in the Walker Art Center's blog TEN: This week in local art.
Mission:
Gallery Gray is dedicated to curating and presenting the work of emerging and established artists in a online context.
History:
Gallery Gray was created in 2009 by Dustin M Price Curator/Director. Gallery Gray is an online gallery with an office and staff based out of the Minneapolis, MN area. Our goal is to have international online juried competitions, supplemented by group and solo shows for emerging to mid career artists interested in utilizing a digital gallery format.
We can all agree that viewing art is at its finest in the presence of the artwork itself. Gallery Gray in no way wants to eliminate or discourage the tactile gallery or museum space experience, only to accompany and encourage it. The digital format of Gallery Gray allows for a number of interesting opportunities that might not be available otherwise.
-In our present economy shipping large work or, large amounts of work is often difficult for emerging artists and currently non eco-friendly.
-An ever increasing number of individuals are doing their communication, shopping, and reading online, an audience that Gallery Gray hopes to encourage in viewing art.
-The ease of sending digital media increases the opportunity for the artists to consider submitting work to be on display to the public they might not otherwise.
-The digital world is often one without borders enabling the international aspect of Gallery Gray to be possible in its current phase.
-It gives underrepresented artists an opportunity to showcase their work in a way that might be financially viable for the artist.
It is with these hopes and goals that we exist as a platform for the curating and exhibition of contemporary art.

I have been asked to lecture about my recent work to the advanced drawing and painting classes at Minnesota State University Mankato, MN.
I was asked to donate a work of art to the MSU Student Art League fundraiser, Bella Notte. The purpose of this organization is to promote enthusiasm for and involvement in the visual arts within the University and the greater Mankato community. Its members also schedule biannual visits to art hubs, such as New York and Chicago.
I also was the juror for the annual student art show at MSU this past March.
I have just been notified of the acceptance of my, Gallery Gray: Gray Matters exhibition proposal for the Conkling Gallery at Minnesota State University Mankato, MN to be held in 2011. This exhibition will be a curated show involving a select number of artist who have worked with myself, and my online gallery, Gallery Gray from 2009 to 2011.
