Thanks, Down­TheT­ubes for the heads-up on this pro­ject; Win­dow Works.

Mantle Arts and North West Leicester­shire Dis­trict Coun­cil wish to appoint a num­ber of artists, to cre­ate work to trans­form empty shops in the town centre of Coalville, N.W. Leicester­shire. Each art­work will com­pletely fill the win­dow of a shop, cre­at­ing a spec­tac­u­lar exhib­i­tion of con­tem­por­ary art.

The dead­line for this is the 11th of Janu­ary, so head over to the site, down­load the brief and get your pro­pos­als in sharp­ish. I love the idea that some of the shops that are being vacated in this eco­nomic down­turn aren’t simply being left to rot. Who wouldn’t want their small town to be turned into a huge gal­lery of con­tem­por­ary art? Bravo, Mantle Arts!
