Greg Mike Unveils Solo Exhibition “Chapter New” at Abv Gallery’s New Location

Visual artist and designer Greg Mike is set to unveil his new art gallery with a long-awaited solo exhibition, a decade since his previous solo exhibition in Atlanta, Georgia.

The upcoming show, titled “Chapter New,” will present the evolution and exciting new directions of the Atlanta-based artist.

“Chapter New” embodies Greg Mike’s artistic evolution, where his signature characters burst with energy and movement across each piece. This exhibition represents Greg Mike’s mission to promote positivity and self-expression through his dynamic use of color and form.

Drawing inspiration from 15 years of artistic exploration, “Chapter New” showcases a diverse array of styles and influences, with new and unreleased works, including vibrant paintings, sculptures, limited edition prints, vinyl figures, apparel, and more.”

Following a three-year renovation, the new EAV location is now more than six times larger than ABV’s previous space in Old Fourth Ward. This brand-new gallery spans 8,500 square feet and the massive transformation plays a crucial role in the overall exhibition, symbolizing a new chapter for both Greg Mike and ABV Gallery and marking a new milestone in Greg Mike’s impressive career as an artist, designer, and creative director.

It’s been a decade since my last solo show in Atlanta, making this exhibition incredibly special to me. Without a doubt, this is the most significant moment in my professional career. The fusion of all-new work, combined with the four-year journey of designing and building this new space, is going to create something truly magical. I’m always driven to create art that inspires and brings joy, and I’m excited to share that energy with the opening of this new exhibition and venue.
