ARTISTS CALL; Eco-LA seeks recovered element/found object art

You may now know of the Eco-LogicalART Gallery in the mid-city area. Our
nonprofit gallery is becoming a hub of recycled/recovered element art.
Specifically for 4 years we've been taking "dead" landfill
destined advertising vinyl, stretching it into canvasses and offering it
to artists free in exchange for exposure on the gallery exterior. To
date now with gallery shows we've sold over 45k of original art
painted on recycled vinyl.

Starting in 2007 Eco-LA secured actual billboards for the display of
original art painted on recycled billboard vinyl. To date our
"drive-by" art events, in Los Angeles and SF have been seen over
40 million times. Here is a video of that process:
