About
Aether Space began in 2017 with a clear purpose: to give emerging Texas artists, especially undergraduate and graduate students, an exhibition space beyond their home institutions. In its first life the gallery was remote, transforming existing retail spaces into a temporary home for new work and new conversations.
The name aether refers to the classical “fifth element,” something pure, expansive and always present. It captured the gallery’s early mobility and it’s belief that art can thrive anywhere.
After a period of pause, Aether Space has returned, this time with a permanent physical home at Winter Street Studios, a place that embodies community and celebrates art making practices in a menagerie of media.
Today, Aether Space is a gallery dedicated to experimentation and collaboration with a mission to creating meaningful opportunities for local, regional and national emerging and mid-career artists.
