Koloron Art Fabric from ESPO

Koloron Art Fabric from ESPO

We are pleased to inform UK users of Koloron Art Fabric that they can now buy from ESPO.

Local Authorities including LEA Schools together with Charities, the volunteer Sector and other qualifying commercial organisations that trade with ESPO are now able to buy Koloron direct.

Koloron large rolls and Mini rolls are held in stock and appear in both their printed and online catalogues.

Street Art and Koloron, a new project.





How to save thousands of Street Art images every year

Throughout 2010 Koloron are inviting UK Artists and Art Groups to enter creative ideas for an exciting project. We at Koloron know there are a lot of talented Artists looking for large spaces to paint their work. A big wall painting is great but is often not appreciated by the person who owns the wall. On many occasions the work is remarkable but because it is seen as graffiti they are lost when the Local Authority has a clean up. Now there is a solution.

Line the wall with Koloron Art Fabric so it can be rolled it up and displayed again somewhere else. Art will never be lost and can always be exhibited again where and when it is wanted.

And here is the real benefit. If we like your creative ideas we will show up on the day to film the painting as it goes up. We will pay for the materials and make a short film of it for the Internet.

If it’s good and makes a news worthy point we will do our best to get the Artist and the film media attention. In one short jump an Artist can go from unappreciated and anonymous to media celebrity.

There will shortly be more details on our Website about how to submit ideas together with how the process works. Visit www.koloron.eu

Jane has a go at the Four Elements with Koloron












Jane Bower got one hundred Year 5 children to consider the Elements. Hardwick Middle School in Bury St. Edmunds, Suffolk set to work creating a number of 4ft square panels. One for each of the Classic Elements.

According to Empedocles, Greek philosopher, scientist and healer, all matter is comprised of four "roots" or elements. Earth, Air, Fire and Water. Well it was the fifth century B.C.

However Koloron Art Fabric turned its hand to a creative interpretation. Working with heat, water and a lot of colour the children had an inspiring time.

Thank you Jane and Year 5 from Bury, seems like a great workshop. One hundred?
