The Good Art Gallery Launched.

And here is a picture that we didn't take but someone alerted us to. Exciting stuff.

We're taking a short break away from HQ in Birmingham to check Nottingham for any good art over the next week, but we'll be back with a list of exhibited artists when we return and gearing up for our next assault on the local arts scene. The Vaults, here we come...

Since we wrote last...

...there have been a plethora of good artists added to The Good Art Gallery, so many in fact (and we're expecting so many more on Friday) that when submissions close at 3pm we'll be putting together a comprehensive list of all of the artists exhibiting. Why not be one of those names on the list? Swing by from 11am-3pm and see us tidying up all the detector making residue from the last 2 weeks. Bring your art along, for the last day of submissions, let's make sure we get more art in the 6ft cube than an entire Biennale...and more people at the opening too!

The weekend at The Good Art Gallery.

Artists added this weekend include Amy Napper, Morgane Kertrestel, Lyndsey O'Connell, Anthony Williams and a mysterious graffiti artist, who decided we were in need of a bright green square. Luckily it turned out to be good so it didn't need to be painted over!

Due to the appalling lack of photos so far on this blog (and, you know, information in general) here's a photo of part of the detector that's just gone to The Public.

Stop by and check it out if you're in the area. Though don't go just for that, because West Bromwich is hideous. Just go to the West Midlands Open instead at the Gas Hall, BMAG, where Art Detection Services Ltd. also have a detector on show!

We were only on the radio earlier weren't we! Sadly I couldn't get enough internet to tell y'all earlier on but here's a link to listen back.

We'll update you on the weekends good art in the gallery en mass tomorrow night. For now we've gotta sleep up ready to deliver to The Public tomorrow. Come visit next week, if you're lucky, we'll do you some more photos of some detectors soon! OH YEAH!

On the 16/04/2010...

Many rejections at The Good Art Gallery, though two local boys, James Gibbins and Michael Johnston got through the rigorous test procedure and made it into the show. Still accepting entries for 1 more week, so bring all your art along!

There's loads of kick-ass (far more kick-ass than terrible movie Kick-ass) stuff happening at Created in Birmingham this weekend including a banging screen printing workshop. Stop by, bring art, and make yourself a tshirt. Or make a tshirt, and submit it as art. Either way, more info on the Created In Birmingham blog.

Today's additions...

The Good Art Gallery saw work arrive by Charlotte Audrey Owen-Meehan and Elizabeth Cufley, plus a rather dapper new piece by Lauren Blankley.

In other news, looks like this May could see Art Detection Services Ltd. shoulderbarge their way past security at The Vaults, putting a show on for ARC. More info to follow!
