hello, good people. hot on the heels of the warm fuzzies show, its time to start thinking about the next good thing….

robot_love. opens first friday, february 6.
MATERIALS DEADLINE: JANUARY 30

Does the future of robotics hold the promise of a dream come true to lighten the workload on humanity and provide companionship? Or perhaps the murder and mayhem of Hollywood movies? Leonardo da Vinci sketched plans for a humanoid robot around 1495; in 1942, Isaac Asimov introduced the idea of fictional robots to entertain and befriend us. The idea of a human creation which can independently move around, sense and manipulate its environment, and exhibit intelligent behavior has been around since the Ancient Greeks….and remains a pretty good idea.

Besides, robots are cool and we love them.

If you love robots too, make something good about them and we’ll put it in the gallery for the month of February. Contact us at info@goodpdx.com and we’ll get you a contract and put yer name on the list of good artists for February.
