Arthur Takes over the Bootleg Theater in Los Angeles for
Solo Residency & Living, Breathing Art Exhibit, February 8th
through March 1st
Songsmith, poet and Grammy-nominated visual artist Joseph Arthur
will be transforming the Bootleg Theater in Los Angeles into
his workshop where he will perform, paint and curate a new, ever-evolving
exhibit of his art every Tuesday night beginning February 8th
through March 1st. The residency marks Joseph’s return
to Los Angeles following two sold-out nights at the Troubadour
and three sold-out nights with Fistful of Mercy at the Hollywood
Forever Cemetery.
A mesmerizing orchestrator of sound loops, Joseph often creates
his own soundtrack to live stage painting. Listen for music from
his first solo album since 2006’s ‘Nuclear Daydream’ (more
on that soon!).
All artwork will be for sale and all performances will be recorded
and sold as bootlegs immediately following the show. Peter Gabriel
hails Joseph’s artwork asexhibiting “strength and a visceral
quality,” connecting “Expressionism, Art Brut, Basquiat
and the Graffiti movement,” and Vanity Fair names him as “one
of our most emotionally revealing and talented singer-songwriters.”
