Gamma Proforma + Feb 11
Margin was pleased to welcome Gamma Proforma who provided the sounds of the February 2011 exhibition, as well as a limited-edition CD exclusively for visiting buyers and press featuring tracks from their roster of great artists +
Back in 2000 Irish Artist/DJ Rob Swain auctioned off slabs of his precious vinyl collection to raise funds to set up Gamma Proforma +
The idea was to create a new kind of label, beyond the traditional music model, a publisher that would embrace all forms with an emphasis on promoting the work of upcoming creatives via bespoke products, events and projects + With no single genre or discipline headlining, the label would take no references from any particular style or movement +
Conceived in Belfast, established in Edinburgh, developed in London, the label’s output has grown and diversified steadily each year +
Today Gamma Proforma is a vibrant art’s antagonist within the arches of underground music and graphic arts + Landmark releases from Parsley Monkphat, Third Shock and Fatalists have soundtracked the story that’s accompanied stunning artwork from the likes of Syd Mead, Elph, Paul Pope and others +
As well as providing the soundtrack and CD for the show in February 2011, Gamma Proforma also launched their first installment of limited-edition clothing at Margin London +
