I'm not a huge car guy, but this show looks awesome (and includes work by Glenn Barr, Robert Crumb, Eric Joyner, Shag, Robert Williams, and many more):
"Carnivora. A Shadowy realm where flesh and machine coalesce into humanity's greatest technical achievement - the automobile. Indispensable extensions of our own nervous systems, cars are metallic monsters as dark and destructive as the men and women who drive them.
L’IMAGERIE GALLERY proudly invites you to join in celebrating its inaugural exhibition at its spacious new location with a gala star-studded grand opening reception. The LA presentation of this incredible sampling of the world’s most notorious artistic renegades coincides with the official publication release of the book. L’IMAGERIE will have on hand for sale the first exclusive West Coast copies of the edition, a truly significant chronicle and commentary on arguably the most critically defining icon of modern civilization.
In addition to the 62 artists exhibited at Detroit’s ©POP Gallery, Carnivora book artists Eduard Anikonov, Steve Cerio, Chris Conte, Cam deLeon, Mike Diana, Brian Horton, Travis Louie, Eric Joyner, Craig LaRotonda, Shag, Greg “Stainboy” Reinel, Jeral Tidwell, Keith Weesner, and Robert Williams will join the exhibit at L’Imagerie Gallery, plus new original works are being produced for the show by Guy Aitchison, William B. Hand, David Trulli, Brian Viveros and Kenneth Williams. Artists who came to our attention after the book went to press and are joining the Carnivora exhibition at L’Imagerie Gallery with their paintings are: Kent Bash, Dean Fleming, Ken Keirns, Chris Peters, Bart Powers, Dwayne Vance and Charles Wish.
