The ARTEC Gallery in Bird Street is opening a new group exhibition, Salvage on June 15 2017 the exhibition opens from 5:30 - 8PM.

The exhibition is titled Salvage because the showcased pieces will be objects that have been recycled and re-imagined into art pieces. According to a statement from the gallery, " These individual pieces are stripped of their original purpose and are reused to create a whole new piece that articulates new ideas. The new pieces unveil their elevation from junk status into a reinterpretation that could defy ideas of purity, being clean; or uphold the damaged, impaired and broken".

The exhibition runs until 8 July 2017. The ARTEC Gallery is located at 36 Bird Street, Central, 6001 Port Elizabeth, Eastern Cape.
