reMIXT August 23, 2008

Last August we opened our space with MIXT, a show celebrating the relationship between music and visual art through the use of mixtapes. We’re doing it again, but this year we are gearing the exhibit to showcase the thriving local music scene in Atlanta. Local artists, including members of Atlanta musical acts such as Judi Chicago, Vera Fang, and Sealions, representatives from Lenny’s Bar as well as singer songwriters and experimental musicians, have contributed to the exhibit. Through visual art alongside mixtapes created by the artists, we hope to get a glimpse of the creativity and influences of Atlanta’s music community as well as help to bridge the gap between the underground arts and music scenes.

“reMIXT” will also feature a local music raffle where one dollar tickets could win you your choice of music and swag provided by local bands.

MINT has put together a playlist of its favorite local music to get you in the mood. Check out mintgalleryremixt.muxtape.com and spread the word.

Artists include: Ben Coleman, Travis Thatcher, Jason Travis, Andre Paraguassu, Sunni Johnson, Mack Williams, Amanda Goodbread, Bean Summer, Robert Peterson, Mat Glaser, Erin Baker, Joe Sikes, Philip Jones, Lindsay Appel, Colin Brag, Danielle Harris
