ARTSHIFT's description:
Angelica Muro, Space 47, San Jose/Truly Independent Arts Entrepreneur
"As co-founder of the independent gallery Space 47, Muro has awakened the sleeping beast of experimental arts enterprise in San Jose’s SoFA. Space 47’s Mentoring Arts Program, which fosters the professional development of emerging artists via collaborative, mentored residencies and exhibitions, shows how Muro thinks bigger than most gallery operators. Over the past year, Muro was sole curator for the private venue, presenting artists whose single common characteristic is a restlessly investigative creative intelligence much like her own." artshiftsanjose.com

After a great two-year run, we have decided to close our beloved project space located in downtown San Jose's SoFA district. Space 47 will remain active by continuing to provide a virtual space here at space47.org. Together with a dedicated online presence, a dynamic group of artists, and upcoming site-specific projects and exhibitions, Space 47 will continue to promote its mission of fostering new ideas and supporting artistic exchange. Although there are several reasons behind our decision to close, it is now time for us as an independently run artist space to branch out into a new direction. We whole-heartedly encourage projects such as Space 47, and we hope that you will continue to support the efforts of emerging arts and artists in the South Bay.
Again, we are very thankful for your support during that past two years, and we will keep you posted on our latest Space 47 Projects.
Sincerely,
Angelica Muro
Principal and Curator, Space 47
