 ART SHOWS

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.

THE GYPSY WALL MURAL
created by the Brendan Palmer w/ help from Owen Beckmann

If you have driven by the Juggling Gypsy, you may have noticed some serious artistic activity on the side wall. The Gypsy Mural project...Yes, it's an unusual space to create such a labor-intensive, large-scale painting, but it's fantastic...and we're not just saying that because it's on our building. Come see for yourself. Facing the Gypsy from the street, its the back right wall. Measuring 16' x a whopping 55', done in a graffiti/urban art style. Brendan Palmer is an amazing artist to work with, and we highly suggest utilizing his innate abilities in your upcoming projects. Check out some more work from the artist HERE

For more information, to to inquire about commissioned works from these artists, contact Brendan Palmer at (910) 233-8947 or by emailing him HERE
