Hello,
This is William Etundi, one of the partners at Artists Wanted.  This
e-mail is going out to the 20 of you who had the most popular
portfolio's in our recent competition, Exposure.  We want to reach out
to you before we make the public announcement of who won the People's
Choice award.  All of you are also still in the running for the grand
prize, but with so many submissions of phenomenal quality, it will be
a couple weeks before our judges will be done going through them all.

The enthusiasm that came of this project was stunning.  Many of you
had thousands of unique visitors see your portfolio.  A few of you
became Internet sensations in your own right.

The winner of the People's Choice award is Scott Irvine of Brooklyn
NY.  Scott had nearly 3,000 people visit his page with well over 2,000
votes cast and an average rating of 4.7 stars.  In close second and
third was Ethan James of Murfreesboro, TN, and Qi Peng  of Salt Lake
City, UT, who also had more than 2,000 votes each.  The way we
tabulated the scoring was simply multiplying your total votes by your
star rating.

We are looking for opportunities for all of those who submitted to the
Exposure competition, but especially for the 20 of you who have such
highly rated portfolios.  Currently on our site your work is featured
at:

http://www.artistswanted.org/exposure/

Also, Artists Wanted is partnering with TheDanger and 3rd Ward
Brooklyn on a massive art party happening in Brooklyn this Saturday.
We'd like to feature your photos digitally projected at the event.
This is a great opportunity to have your work seen be several hundred
people.

If you are interested in having your work displayed, simply reply to
this message with 5 to 6 images that you'd like to show, or we can
show the work you have in your portfolio.  If you live in the New York
City area, come to the event and you will be treated like a star with
free entrance and free drinks all night.  Simply, reply to this
message and I'll make sure you are taken care of.

Details on the party are below.

Thanks again for participating in Exposure.

This Saturday, June 28th you are invited to the opening of:

Dubai:Brooklyn
http://www.dubaibrooklyn.com
Art : Music : Performance
Made exquisitely out of control.

Dubai is:
A metaphor and a warning.  This is the story of the
shifting center of the world, of art vs. commerce and the
blurring of lines between principled escapism and
unbridled hedonism.  We are building out a space that is a
celebration of the human extreme.  As the world shifts
from under us, this is your great escape.

(But all the above is really just a heady excuse for a series
of events that are intoxicatingly out-of-control.)

Dubai Looks Like:
14,000 sqft. of intimate spaces, interactive art
installations, spontaneous performance, a massive
dance-floor and perfected sound-systems raising the volume
on these hot summer nights.  Over the course of the coming
months, we will be building and evolving the space with a
team of artists from Peripheral Media Projects/Ad-Hoc Art,
ArtistsWanted.org, The Madagascar Institute, 3rd Ward Brooklyn,
The Lady Circus and more.  Expect a new experience with each party.

Dubai Sounds Like:
This Saturday the music will rise from classic 45s, to funk,
house and electro-beats to a special Space Hause set
bringing in the sunrise and beyond.

Featuring:
Within the Grand Mirage: the acclaimed DJ Duane, $mall
hange, Mr. Finewine of WFMU and the Brooklyn favorite:
Zemi17.

In the downstairs Dome of Dubai:
The Amoeba Collective brings a full-scale gamelan
installation with dozens of instruments shipped from
Indonesia and the eery beauty of Dok on Therimin.  This
set is something that needs to be experienced to be
believed.  After, the Burning Man collective ImageNode
takes over with Morgan Packard of Microcosm playing
abstract and sexy live PA ambient electronics, Skillcrane
with live PA laptop and guitar duo loved by hoboes
worldwide and dj Borne welcomes the morning with a dub,
experimental, downtempo DJ set.

Dubai Feels Like:
That sticky insane summer party offering the best of this
city when all boundaries are abandoned.  Expect a little
sweat, lust and passion plus a touch of heady Danger with:
roving gypsy cacophony by the beautifully fierce Lady
Circus; out-sized sculpture by Ryan O'Conner; the Golden
Bough by Project D. in the Arboreal Room;  live silk
screen installation by Peripheral Media Projects; and a
double-dose of fire from Squiddle and Mr. Kennedy.

Dubai Tastes Like:
Absinthe and hookahs, sweat and cherries, cocktails and
the lips of your next great love.  Beyond the usual
underground party fare, we have upgraded our bar options
with a range from cheap beer to the best Absinthe in the
city.  On the open-air terrace we will be serving high-end
down-home Brooklyn eats from the Urban Gourmet.

Dubai is at:
341 Scholes St., Bushwick Brooklyn.
(You may have seen this space before, but never like this.
Now we have the *entire* building.)

Take the L train to Montrose Ave, walk two blocks north to
Scholes and three blocks east to the location.
Listen for the music.

Arrive after 11pm and stay past sunrise.
