The Goodfoot will have an invitational group show comprised of friends that
Klutch has made during his exploits in street art. For this show all mediums
will be accepted with the only criteria being that it is painted on a
record. Visitors to the show can expect to see the limits of vinyl painting
expanded as illustrators, designers, street artists, graffiti writers, and
tattoo artists bring their perspective and talents into the fold.
Vinyl Killers, one of Portland's most loved art shows returns this October
for another installment of rescuing abandoned records and repurposing them
as art.
From it's start in a NE Portland backyard just 2 years ago the Vinyl Killers
shows have developed into a widely recognized and well-respected name in the
global street art scene and beyond. Artists from around the world continue
to pick up on painting records and vinyl work is now a staple of many street
art exhibitions. During the past year there has been several other vinyl
shows held the U.K., Australia, and Denmark. In April the VK collective was
invited to do an installation in the lobby at San Francisco's Hotel Des
Arts. Klutch, the VK organizer, designed an entire room using his vinyl work
and spray painted ornamentation that is a permanent installation at the
hotel. As the medium of vinyl painting keeps growing Vinyl Killers has
become it's annual gathering of the tribes.
