I’m very happy to announce, my Third Annual Open House at Hangar 18 Studio Gallery on Friday, July 15 from 12 noon to 6 pm.

Let’s get together for a celebration! I’d love to welcome the Widespread Panic family to Oakland, California and give everyone a warm welcome to the my studio. This is a great opportunity to visit the print studio that gave birth to some of your favorite posters for your favorite band. I’ll be making a Widespread Panic art show, an exclusive showing of my art prints on oak panel, with some special prints, rarities, and surprises available!

We will be giving people random numbers at the door at 11 am, so overnight camping is not encouraged.

Last Week On View • “Out of Print: Pushing the Boundaries in the Art of Print”, Fort Wayne Museum of Art

ChuckSperry1

Out of Print: Pushing the Boundaries in the Art of Print
Fort Wayne Museum of Art
March 19 – May 29, 2016

Exhibiting artists: Bill Fick, Chuck Sperry, Crystal Wagner, Dennis McNett, Greg Gossel, Morning Breath, Ravi Zupa, and Troy Lovegates.

Printing is one of the oldest forms of art. Woodblock printing was the first to develop as early as 220 A.D. in China. From this point, printing evolved into many forms, most memorably by way of the invention of the printing press around 1440 that served as the most efficient way to educate the masses through newspapers and books.

In all this time the medium is still relevant, but more important, artists are finding new ways with which to use old methods. This exhibition showcases a select handful of artists who are reshaping the old ways into new on multiple levels.

This body of work serves as evidence that traditional printing is far from obsolete, but it will continue to be used and expanded by artists looking for new ways to express themselves: in with the new, and out and with the old.
