Space One Eleven is a visual arts organization founded in Birmingham, Alabama in 1986. Space One Eleven’s mission is to provide professional opportunities for artists, create a forum for public understanding of contemporary art, and offer arts education to area youth. Foregrounding the values of social justice and human rights, it supports artists to take creative risks and address current issues through projects executed in all media. As an artist-run alternative to commercial galleries and traditional museum settings, Space One Eleven encourages artists at all career levels to exercise their creative freedom and create work that takes risks.

“Few arts funders have the independence and clarity of purpose to defend the rights of artists and arts organizations to freely express difficult, uncomfortable, even radical ideas as courageously and consistently as the Andy Warhol Foundation.”
