Vinyl IS awesome and so is the idea behind this art show:

ARGYLE FINE ART PRESENTS:
Vinylview

On July 10, 2008, Argyle Fine Art will host a new and exciting exhibition combining both the musical and visual arts. Artists from all backgrounds are encouraged to participate.

Applicants are asked to create artworks using vinyl records, and if desired, record sleeves. This is an open call to all visual art forms; artists are not restricted to using specific mediums. You may for instance paint directly onto the vinyl, or you may use the record as material for sculpture. Recycled records will be provided by the gallery free of charge, and are currently available for pick-up.

Although this is an open call, ALL works will be accepted at the discretion of the gallery. Applicants must send a jpeg of completed works to Argyle Fine Art via e-mail by June 19th. Artists that have been chosen will be notified ASAP, once we have received their proposal.

Accepted artworks will be sold at a retail price chosen by the artist, and the gallery will assume 50% commission from this price. The gallery will then donate 10% of its profits to a TBA charity in support of music education.

This show will run from July 10th until August 4th. Artists will be required to pick up any unsold work after the show has ended.

p.s.-if you are a musician and would like to play at this reception, let us know. we would be interested in hearing from YOU.

Please telephone or email the gallery if you have any questions in regards to show requirements.

Runs from Thursday, July 10, 2008 to Monday, August 4, 2008
