Parkland is Burning - Don't Miss It

You won’t want to miss this: this Thursday Art Chantry will be giving an artist’s talk at Fulcrum Gallery, where his art is on display this month. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame MoMA, the Smithsonian, the Louvre, and now Fulcrum. Chantry is perhaps best known for his poster and album artwork for the likes of Nirvana, and his work reflects a similar gritty edginess that isn’t afraid to make viewers uncomfortable and even slightly off-balance.

The show at Fulcrum continues through November 17th, but the talk this Thursday promises to be a fascinating opportunity to hear from the artist himself about his unique perspective on, and process of creating art.
