About The Art Of Records II: Over the last few decades album art has gone from a 12\u00e2\u20ac\u009d canvases to a 2\u00e2\u20ac\u009d screens, and that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s usually the best-case scenario for the often incredible art that accompanies music releases.\u00c2\u00a0 Landmark albums like A Tribe Called Quest\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Low End Theory, Nas\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Illmatic and De La Soul is Dead have instantly recognizable covers that are embedded in music and art lovers\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 psyches forever, but the 12\u00e2\u20ac\u009d as a canvas has become a rarity in the public eye.\u00c2\u00a0 Everyone from music and art lovers to average people on the street still connect to both the album art and 12\u00e2\u20ac\u009d format, yet we rarely take the time to honor the truly great ones.\u00c2\u00a0 The Art Of Records is an exhibit that aims to do just that; focusing on the legacy of exceptional art accompanying exceptional music and the idea of introducing both to a new generation.<\/p>\n

The Art Of Records combines art, music and tradition to celebrate and honor the rich history and mystique of record cover art, 12\u00e2\u20ac\u00b3 vinyl and the artists that create it (both musically and graphically). Curated by Dunn the Signtologist<\/a> and DJ Low Key<\/a>, the exhibit features a series of classic 12\u00e2\u20ac\u00b3 album and single covers re-imagined and recreated by top artists in Denver.\u00c2\u00a0 The 12\u00e2\u20ac\u009d covers will also be on display and the concept comes full circle with DJ Low Key playing an all vinyl set of the featured records as the night\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s soundtrack.<\/p>\n
