"All Writes Reserved" is full of blindingly colorful, carefully rendered, and physically distorted letterforms and artwork. The exhibit will also house a large-scale installation that combines West Coast graffiti with found objects from the streets of New York. By utilizing found objects, they are taking ownership of the integrated items, and are essentially translating what occurs in the streets to this exhibition. RETNA, REVOK, and SABER (of The Seventh Letter crew [JUXTAPOZ Issue #78]) bring it big to the Powerhouse Arena, an art space with soaring 24-foot ceilings and a 5,000 square foot ground floor, in Brooklyn's DUMBO district on Saturday, August 11th, 2007. {moscomment}

Amandalynn has this to say about her experience curating Dream Girls, "As always, the artists who particpated in this show really made it outstanding. Each one has thier own unique style, talent, and personality. I love working with such dedicated artists and couldn't have been happier about anything...this truly was a tribute to the 'Dream Girls' of the world."
