About Me

Frock N Roll An Intersect of Art, Music and Fashion.Curated by Wendy Gosselin and Veronica IbarraFriday April 13th thru Saturday April 28th Opening Reception: April 13th, 6pm -midnight Frock N Roll –the creation of a theatrical environment; a happening that recognizes and embraces a diverse assemblage of artists with a passion for all that is Frock N Roll. – Curators: Wendy Gosselin and Veronica Ibarra.New York - Frock N Roll is a multi-media exhibition exploring the connection, evolution and impact that visual art, fashion and rock and roll evoke in our society. Frock N Roll developed from obsessions for vintage materials, music, the zeitgeist of decades past and future, idols and heroes, and contemporary design. The artists in this exposition are aroused by classic, glitter, metal and all incarnations of rock to construct a new aesthetic.Uniting over 20 cutting-edge artists from the international arena of the most inspirational cities in the world, this unique event showcases provocative works in various mediums including photography, fashion design, sculpture, painting, illustration, performance, installation, graphic design, and music. Live performances will be featured to provide a complete three-dimensional “happening” environment.Local Project - is a nonprofit organization committed to building a forum for artists, creating synergy between their artwork and the public. LP supports all forms of self-expression by providing an open space for artists without concern to their genre, medium, or provenance. LP is building itself as a bridge between the artists and established art institutions seeking new talents to support; growing to become a catalyst of a new generation of artists.The exhibition opens, Friday April the 13th at the Local Project Gallery, Long Island, NY.And remains on view thru April 28th.ArtistsEva Aridjis, NYC ~Maureen Baine, NYC ~ Joanne Burke, UK ~ Paul Collins, NYC ~Tracy Conti, NYC ~ Plastic Crimewave, Chicago ~ Marietta Davis, NYC ~Lauren Devine, NYC ~ Wendy Gosselin, NYC ~Moni Haworth, UK ~Joie Iacono, NYC ~ Avelardo Ibarra, Los Angeles ~Veronica Ibarra, NYCCornelia Jensen, NYC ~ Tora Lopez, NYC ~ Layla Lozano, NYC~Sarah MacKinnon, NYC ~ Emiliano Maggi, Rome ~ Alexandra Morrill, NYC ~ Parasite Films, NYC ~ Pomade, NYC~Arik Roper, NYC ~April Rose, NYC ~ Lou Suarez, NYC ~ Jaiko Suzuki, NYCUrban Inks, NYC ~ Craig VanMackelberg, NYC ~ Angela Wieland, NYC ~ Grant Worth, NYC**ALL ARTWORK UNDER PICS IS NOT NECESSARILY WHAT WILL BE SHOWN AT FROCK N ROLL.
