Discover the art of instrument inlay featuring the work of four world
renowned artisan: Renée Karnes, Larry Robinson, Harvey Leach and Grit
Laskin.

>From June 2, 2007 - July 15, 2007, the Museum of Making Music in
Carlsbad, California presents a ground breaking exhibition, "Visual
Voices: the New School of Inlaid Art on Guitars and Banjos," that
explores the art and craftsmanship involved in creating instrumental
masterpieces.

Luthiery (guitar making), like inlay, is a highly skilled practice,
and this exhibit is the first of its kind that showcases the unique
relationship of these two distinctive artistries. The inlay artists
featured are: Larry Robinson, William "Grit" Laskin, Harvey Leach and
Renée Karnes, each renowned within the luthier and inlay communities
for instruments of staggering quality.
