Re: Would people be interested in a AN Art show?

This sounds like a great idea. Depending on how diverse the show would be i'd be interested in perhaps doing something for it. Just a case of whether, jewellery/garments/general body adornment had a place at this or whether it was gonna be canvas/photography based.

Either way i'd deffo come along for a swatch.

How about Sloans ballroom, where the Craft Mafia hang out? Ask Toast about that one.
big zombie lewis?

Re: Would people be interested in a AN Art show?

There's a "gallery" (read: converted garage run by Art School students) on Renfrew Street, behind the Garage...I attended a "Draw or Die" contest in there with Burrows once. I can imagine it being cheap enough.

Oh, and count me in for showing off art-farty stuff *gets out the spray-paint, overhead-projector and masking tape*

[edit: forgot to mention the name of the gallery, it's called "Lowsalt"]

That's what that is. I've always wondered.

Re: Would people be interested in a AN Art show?

This thread was funnier than I expected, what with Jaemi/Murray/Al going at it and TSR suggesting we rent out a gallery for £200 a day.

Re: Would people be interested in a AN Art show?

I think Forbes was distracted by buying into a nightclub. Give him a nudge next time you talk to him.

I doubt that the Classic Grand would make a good venue for an art show, before anyone suggests that … bit dark for viewing artworks.

They'd probably get knocked over by over-enthusiastic dancers when some Industrial gets played anyway.

Re: Would people be interested in a AN Art show?

If I remember right, there’s a charge for changing your username these days. Couple of quid. The reasons for that are lost in the mists of time, but mostly it stops folk pissing around and changing name quite so flippantly. Results in less pisstakes etc.

Re: Would people be interested in a AN Art show?

I think I've got a better idea. Rather than an art show, what about a single day event? A bit crafts as well as art. Most good things sell on opening night anyway, so why not just have the party and nothing else? Plus the people who do the art are there to sell it to the gullible public. It also means other types of work can be sold, such as Jackie's jewellery and so on. I'm sure other people on here craft. I'll run the WI cake stall.
