The Wall to Wall Gallery in The Home Quarter has announced a unique and prestigious one-month exhibition from the musically and artistically gifted legend, Bob Dylan.
Opening from 15th April 2011, the exhibition will feature signed limited edition graphics from The Drawn Blank Series – a collection of drawings Dylan created whilst on the road from 1989 to 1992.
While Bob Dylan has been a committed visual artist for more than four decades, The Drawn Blank Series has cast a vibrant new light on the singular creativity of one of the world’s most important and influential cultural figures.
Marisha Pessl, New York Times said: "Bob Dylan's brush strokes are like his voice, straightforward, rough, occasionally fragile, but always intent on illustrating the treads of human experience.
"Seemingly unworried about how something looks, he’s not after artistic perfection but something larger, a moment, a feeling. The effect is enthralling.
"These expressive works capture Dylan’s chance encounters and uniquely combine the everyday with the extraordinary and the intimate, personal moments in Dylan’s time. This is achieved through his portraits, interiors, landscapes, still life, nudes and street scenes.
Dylan himself said: “I was just drawing whatever I felt like drawing, whenever I felt like doing it. The idea was always to do it without affection or self-reference, to provide some kind of panoramic view of the world as I was seeing it.”
The collection will be shown in three graphic sizes with prices starting from £1,250. There are classic and enduring Portfolio and Box Sets of graphics as well as a beautiful hardback book (for £39.95) illustrating the extraordinary collection from Bob Dylan.
Each edition shown in Wall to Wall is published in a limited number of no more than 295 copies worldwide, making them extremely exclusive to fans of his work. All are printed on Hahnemühle Museum Etching paper, certificated and personally signed by Dylan the artist.
