Sadly, this exhibit is approximately 2,800 miles away from me. But that doesn’t mean some of you can’t go!
Showcasing work based on/inspired by this legendary (and personal favorite) TV series, the exhibit features some great contributions from David Lynch (the creator of the show), Grace Zabriskie (who played “the eerily psychic mother of the doomed Laura Palmer”, and quite a few others including a personal favorite artist of mine, the awesome Scott C. (check out his site/tumblr here, “Great Showdowns”).
Check out some of the pieces, they’re awesome!
Laura Palmer, “Wrapped in Plastic” (which was the name of the Twin Peaks fanzine back inna day)
A great sort of “Evil Angel” Laura:
A wonderful rendering by Chris Mars of David Lynch himself as FBI Regional Bureau Chief Gordon Cole:
One of my personal favorites, “Late Night at the Double R” featuring Laura with James Hurley on his motorcycle. (Incidentally, James Marshall who played James Hurley on “Twin Peaks” will also have art displayed, I don’t know the particular artist of this piece, it may very well be his, gorgeous either way).
An awesome stylistic depiction of the “Red Room” and inhabitants of the “Black Lodge” by Josh Agle, aka “Shag”:
I *NEED* this as a poster:
and lastly, for now, for here, Scott C.’s wonderful depiction of a little down time in the Red Room of the Black Lodge with Agent Dale Cooper and The Man from Another Place.
So awesome. I hope/wish/pray that this exhibit can/will somehow reach New York City. If you go pick me up a print!!
