Illiterate Presents CMYK + RGB!

On Friday, August 21st 2009 Illiterate brings its mission of creative collaboration to Denver's Space gallery with “RGB + CMYK”, an interactive arts event exploring the interactions between print and digital media. With print and digital installations, live screen printing, a conceptual fashion show and a print exhibition by some of Denver's most prolific contemporary artists and designers, “RGB + CMYK” places two forms of reproduction side by side asking the question on every newspaper publisher and online entrepreneur's mind: are these formats complimentary or in competition?

 Print Exhibit 

Twenty +  artists are creating custom prints based on the theme CMYK+RGB. Artists are free to explore any print method of their choice including screen printing, digital giclee, linoleum cuts, lithography, letterpress -- anything that can be represented on paper. All prints will be for sale and reasonably priced under $50.

 DVLP Fall Fashion Release 

Award winning streetwear brand, DVLP, will be unveiling its fall fashion series, including the new premier Cursive line of clothing, in a CMYK+RGB themed runway show.

 Live Screen Printing

 Local screen print shop Indy Ink will be in attendance with their six color screen printing apparatus printing   

 CMYK + RGB related designs on T-Shirts and paper. Bring your own, and they'll print it for free!

 Print and Digital Installations 

 Denver artists Matt Scobey and Sterling Crispin are creating interactive installations incorporating the print 

 and digital concepts of CMYK + RGB. We can't say too much on these except that you will be involved.

 Music Performances 

 DJ Cory Brown, DJ Synergy and Pictureplane will take on the audio version of the CMYK + RGB theme with

 DJ sets that include the warm analog purr of vinyl records alongside the crisp digital sampling and beat

 matching enabled by turning sound waves into 1’s and 0’s. Also stay tuned for a unique sound performance

 by Ryan Mcryhew of Denver's audio warping wizards BDRMPPLL.

 Food and Drink 

 Denver’s favorite bakers at the Shoppe will be providing custom cupcakes for all to enjoy as they 

 contemplate the interaction of traditional and emerging media platforms.   Wash your sweet treat down with a

 comlimentary Izze or a brew.
