  • Preview: “World on Fire” Grammy Art Show

    In honor of the Grammy’s, Feb 2nd through the 8th, Shooting Gallery along with Kris Lewis and help from Will.I.Am bring a group show entitled “World on Fire”. The show features portraits of big name music stars painted by 20-25 of some of the best artists in the “Lowbrow” scene. The works and prints that re sold at the show will help to benefit the Pea Pod Foundation. A few sites have talked about this show, and Arrested Motion just posted a preview of some of the works that will be on view, and from what I have seen so far this show is going to not only help out a great foundation but bring the fans some killer artwork.

    The show will feature portraits from: Lori Earley (Madonna), Paul Chatem (Rick Rubin), Kris Lewis (Beck), Travis Louie (Trent Reznor, NIN), Shawn Barber (Angus Young, AC/DC), Natalia Fabia (Pink), and it is also said we will see Jeremy Lipking painting Snoop Dogg, Ron English (Metallica), Van Arno (BB King), Shepard Fairey (Paul McCartney) and many more.

  • Preview: Tara Mcpherson, Jim Houser & Doze Green @ Choque Cultural

    Coming this January 17th at the Choque Cultural Gallery in Sao Paulo, Brazil, is a group show featuring new works by Doze Green, Jim Houser and Tara McPherson.
    The images for Doze Green and Tara Mcpherson are up on the site, nothing from Jim Houser yet. I really like the new from Tara, thee are no prices on the site as of yet. I do hope some prints are made from a few of these, like “From the Abyss” (1st below) would make a killer print for those of us unable to score the original.

    Opening up this December 13th at the Last Rites Gallery in New York is “Anathema”, featuring new paintings by Shawn Barber and Vincent Castiglia. The opening Reception is from 7-11pm, and Shawn will be there signing his new book Forever and Ever.

    This is Shawn’s first collection of erotic works, they are beautifully rendered as all of his paintings are and very intense. I can only imagine what seeing them in person would be like. Vincent also has some new erotic inspired pieces as well, and if you look in the shop you will find prints from both artists. There is two new prints from Shawn, one Last Rites Exclusive of his “Portrait of the artist: Paul Booth” and another of Genevive Zacconi.
