NEXT GYPSY ART SHOW: JANUARY 19.2013

attend the facebook event HERE

Hey loves! So the End of the World happened and now we must expand into the new age of awesomeness! We have decided to put on an art show exposing visions of this new era we find ourselves in. Artists, what does this change mean for you? We are accepting works involving rejuvenation, renewal, reamplification, the whole Phoenix rising bit, Utopian ideas and settings, and any positive element of the world we find ourselves in after THE END. We are encouraging artists and crafters to bring tents and tables, paintings and sculpture, music and joy, and really whatever you want that fits this theme. There will be space for hanging and display inside, as well as space in the parking lot for tent and table vending setups. Special musical guests Sinners and Saints play at 8 p.m. followed by more amazing acts If you wish to bring a tent or have a table, contact Callan Trippe or Hueman Being who will fill you in on vendor fees. Hanged works will have a 30% commission attached. Can't wait to see what everyone comes up with. Love and light and all that good stuff!

NEXT GYPSY ART SHOW: WEDS JULY 25th, 2012.

The Runoff Art Show! w/ Drew Swinson

The urge to create is so greatly encompassing it often seeps its way into everything we do, sometimes even unexpectedly so. As an artist, you can't help but notice the beauty in everything, even when it takes the form of what might seem to others as an unintentional mess. The runoff art show is about the process through which we create, and that which often comes as a result of our methods; to create art encompassing not only the intended surface, but that in proximity to our process. It embraces the simplicity of that which is an enjoyable view on the process and natural expression of the artist. It is the expression of surrealist automatism in its purest form. Come be a part of this event July 25, 2012

$3 suggested donation at the door, and that goes directly to traveling band Antioquia. Seriously, can you beat that?

For info on Antioquia: http://www.antioquia-band.​net/pages/home.html

"Birthed in Colombia and bred in the San Francisco Bay Area, Oakland-based Antioquia makes music that inspires raucous dancing and deep listening. With influences ranging from Mahavishnu Orchestra to AfroColombian songstress Toto La Mompasina and traditional music from West Africa, Antioquia’s primary mission is to unite humans in the healing act of dance. Their earnest let-it-all-hang-out stage presence encourages the same from the audience, creating a feedback loop that builds momentum as standers-by are sucked into the dance floor....

Peppered with fits of improvisation, bouts of silliness and fiery percussion pieces performed amidst the crowd, an Antioquia set is high energy, captivating, and anything but predictable. You can count on each show to bring the audience closer to the stage and closer together."

MERCHANTS OF VISION

Merchants Of Vision, a creative collaboration curated by Terra Genae Thompson, and a laundry-list of some of Wilmington's creative counter-culture icons, present recurring "art-shows" which defy the standard concept of your basic art-show / wine tasting opening. Every Merchants of vision show features several artists from varying disciplines, interwoven with interactiveart and sound installations, performance art, and living art. The last M.O.V show ran in full spectrum through the end of 2009, and you can still check out some of the works still present in the Gypsy today. The works are reasonably priced, and though we love them on our walls, the artists want these in your home. Come by the Gypsy to see for yourself.
