Great Walls of Vinyl, Part Deux

 

Great Walls of Vinyl, Part Deux is the next exhibition at E11even 2.  GWV will open on Friday, March 15th from 5-9p. This exhibit will be an optical mash up classic vinyl records with layered collage and graffiti elements.  Artist Garrett Weider presents the idea of covering the gallery with vinyl records (floor to ceiling) as his canvas.  Garrett says, “I want the show to be sensory overload, a lot to see, and make it a memorable experience.”

Why is this Part Deux?  Weider states, “I had a show a few years ago where I covered a two story wall with records, and the event and outcome was very successful. I wanted to replicate that idea, but fill an entire room.”  Each piece will be a cool $25, and this will be a cash and carry event.  That means guests will be able to take the work immediately off the wall and a new record will replace it, making the show a revolving and transforming experience.

Board to Death: Aug 15, 2014

E11even 2’s exhibition “Board to Death”, a Skateboard Art Exhibit might just have guests taking on a new hobby. On Friday August 15th from 5-9pm, over 30 artists will have transformed over 100 skateboards in to works of art. Curator and gallery owner, R!ch Cihlar, says “There’s nothing boring about this show. Even if you’re not into skateboarding the problem solving and design work from these artists are incredible.”

The title Board to death is a play on words for those who have had creative/writers block and also using the word “board” from skateboard. This exhibition will have an array of styles, mediums, and genres to please everyone’s visual pallet.

Board to Death is a one day exhibition, featured during the 78th Street Studios 3rd Friday events. (3rd Friday events offer 40+ Galleries/Studios and nearly 180, 000 Square feet of art!)
