Gallery of rock: There’s music on the walls and in the air at 1819 Gallery.

Though it began as an afterthought, the gallery at 1819 Central has attracted some impressive artists in just four months of existence. Displayed so far: photographer Lisa Law; screen printer Jeff Wood and painter George Frayne. Coming soon: the digital art of Mark Mothersbaugh.

The thread that ties these artists together is music. Mothersbaugh, scheduled for an exhibition and video conference in May, is a member of Devo. Law has captured in black and white some of the biggest names in rock and roll. Wood, designs psychedelic posters for jam and bluegrass stars. View the complete article!

Sept. 4 – Nov. 5! Uncut: The Rock Poster Art of Jeff Wood

1819 Central Gallery + Event Space presents:

The show features never before-seen uncut sheets of past studio work. For those unfamiliar with what an uncut sheet is, it’s the raw press sheet before the posters are cut and trimmed. What makes them interesting is often times two different posters are run on a sheet creating some interesting juxtapositions like Judas Priest and Rufus Wainwright. Many have handbills run across the bottom also. Uncuts are usually limited to 5-10 sheets, so they are pretty rare items.

Jeff has never really offered any of these sheets for sale or shown them except for the occasional festival or charity fundraiser. He decided he would like to show people some of the more interesting combos Drowning Creek has done over the years and let them see the light of day. Visit www.drowningcreek.com
