<p>Bonjour!</p>
<p>I now have the details of our Vinyl Art Exhibition, and they are as follows:</p>
<p><strong>Location</strong>: Médiathéque de Sigean, France</p>
<p><strong>Dates:</strong> 10 - 18 April, 2015</p>
<p><strong>Vinyl must be received</strong>: before 3 April</p>
<p><strong>Specifications:</strong> 12" 33 rpm Vinyl, onl. Painted/collaged on one side only. With a title.</p>
<p><strong>Post your Vinyl to me at this address:</strong></p>
<p> Mark Parmentier-Herman,</p>
<p> 7 rue de la Vieille Fontaine,</p>
<p> F-11130 Sigean,</p>
<p> France</p>
<p>(Mme Parmentier is a kind old lady who lives opposite me; She is usually at home when the postman comes mid-morning and takes in my parcels. Otherwise, he won't leave them for me, and I have to get them from the Post Office which is a biiiiiig drag)</p>
<p><strong>Context:</strong> the Vinyl Art Exhibition will be the opening event in the <strong>1st Sigean Art Festival</strong> (no prizes for guessing who is organising this) -- a 2 week event featuring 3-5 Exhibitions, art workshops, street painting, pop-up exhibitions, etc. (More details on this later)</p>
<p></p>
<p><strong>If possible, could you let me know in advance if you are going to send me any Vinyl, and if so how many pieces? More the better!</strong></p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>Regards.</p>

<p>At the time of writing (11 September) I have got 4 pieces of 12 inch Vinyl Art (well one is only 10 inches, but let's not worry about that) that I can put into the Exhibition.</p>
<p></p>
<p>1. This is from Maria Jose Silva-Mize, and was the winning entrant in our earlier 'First International Vinyl Art Awards':</p>

This is from Lynne Gurney. It's called 'Waltzing Cats' and also won an award:</p>

The third of our earlier award winners is from Erni, a double-sided piece of Vinyl Art:</p>

<p><a target="_self" href="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/99925665?profile=original"><img width="750" class="align-full" src="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/99925665?profile=RESIZE_1024x1024" width="750"/></a>Unfortunately -- and here we get into the 'Exhibition Powers of the DJ' (me!), only one side of Erni's Vinyl can be exhibited. It will NOT be the side with the bar of chocolate on. And, in all fairness, I must inform you that not only does the DJ intend to remove the bar of chocolate from the Vinyl before he hangs it, but he also intends to eat it (the chocolate, not the Vinyl). Thanks, Erni!</p>
<p>4. The next one is the first one I have received to date following my announcement of the Exhibition. It comes from Junanne peck (who I hope will accept my invitation to join the Group). Here it is:</p>

<p>Thanks Junanne.</p>
<p>Thanks everyone.</p>
<p>I know that Amy & Katerina are going to send some Vinyl for the Exhibtion. I will post photos of them when they arrive.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, <strong>keep it comin', Gang</strong></p>
<p>Thank you, Val</p>

<p>Bonjour!<br/> <br/> I intend to hold an Exhibition of Vinyl Art in the Spring of 2015. I don't have an exact date, but it will be around about Easter (end March/start April). I don't know exactly when, but I know where -- the Médiathèque in Sigean, France. I haven't written to the Mairie about this yet, but to get permission to use the Médiathèque should be a formality.<br/> <br/> The Exhibition will be entitled something like 'Vinyl Art', and be by 'Mark Herman and Friends'. It will comprise about 60 pieces of Vinyl Art -- aproximately half by me, half by my Friends.<br/> <br/> I herebye INVITE YOU TO BE ONE OF MY VINYL ART FRIENDS AND TO PARTICIPATE IN THE EXHIBITION.<br/> <br/> This is what you must do:<br/> <br/> * send me one or more pieces of Vinyl Art on 12 inch (33rpm) LP records, and ONLY on 12 inch LP records. This is the one and only size of the 'canvas'.<br/> * you can place your art on the Vinyl (and even hang very small things off it), but 12 inches is the one and only format that will be accepted<br/> * sleeve covers, 7 inch (45 rpms) and 10 inch records will NOT be accepted. Nor, of course, will CDS, DVDs or anything horrible like that.<br/> * the records will be hung vertically. Anything that requires a horizontal or any other sort of display will be rejected<br/> * the usual rules about content apply. I reserve the right to reject anything unsuitable on content, size or other grounds<br/> * but, in principle, ALL 12 inch records sent to me will be included in the Exhibition. If I receive more than 30 pieces of Vinyl Art from you, my Friends, I may have to rotate the works during the Exhibition to ensure that everything is displayed. (If I receive significantly less than 30 pieces, then I'm going to be stuck!) <br/> * no returns<br/> * the receipt of each individual work will be acknowledged and a photo of it posted here by me (or the photo by you, if you prefer). Photos of the Exhibition will be posted later.<br/> <br/> Your Vinyl Art should be sent to me at:<br/> <br/> 1 rue de la Vieille Fontaine, <br/> F-11130 Sigean,<br/> France.</p>
<p>THE DEADLINE FOR ME TO RECEIVE YOUR VINYL ART IS 14 FEBRUARY, 2015 (Valentine's Day)<br/> <br/> I do hope you will join in!<br/> Regards, <br/> Vinyl Val</p> CONFESSIONS OF AN ANALOGUE ONLY VINYL MAN: Vinyl Val's storytag:iuoma-network.ning.com,2014-04-19:2496677:Topic:15373272014-04-19T04:10:45.015Zstripygoosehttp://iuoma-network.ning.com/profile/stripygoose
