Long Awaited Sperry Retrospective Exhibition at Fort Wayne Museum of Art Weeks Away!

It’s almost here, the museum exhibition for which we’ve waited two years, is just weeks away! I would like to express my gratitude to my supporters for patiently waiting and keeping the flame alive for this big event! Beautiful new art prints will be available to acquire in regular editions, my museum catalog “Color x Color”, my new hand-woven tapestry “Terpsichore”, exceptional events, and surprises! I can’t wait to see you in Fort Wayne!

Color X Color:
Selections from the Chuck Sperry Archive
April 23– July 10, 2022
Fort Wayne Museum of Art, Fort Wayne, Indiana

Opening events on April 22-24, 2022.

Chuck Sperry’s illustrious rock poster career has spanned over twenty-five years with no signs of stopping. During that time Sperry has printed thousands of posters for hundreds of bands. He was travelled the world displaying his poster in dive bars to galleries in Europe, New York, and California. Now Sperry’s hard work has brought him to museums.

Fort Wayne Museum of Art is the future home of Sperry’s Archive and we look forward to showcasing 150+ works of Sperry’s.

Archive collected and curated by Josef Zimmerman

————————-

UPDATE: All prints to be released will be REGULAR EDITION at the “Color x Color” opening at the Fort Wayne Museum of Art. Every ticket holder will get the same opportunity for all the prints released.
All ticket holders will have the opportunity to get all regular edition prints offered.
No lottery will be necessary. 
Pardon me, out of excitement, I misspoke and teased the variant editions to the art prints offered at FWMOA. 
The variants I mistakenly teased for the opening – will be released through www.chucksperry.net at a future date (after the museum opening) TBA. Stay Tuned!

“Color x Color: The Sperry Poster Archive” are being held in reserve for the rescheduled exhibition.
