Descripción de la Exposición

Atomica Gallery is excited to announce '101 Artists to Listen to Before You Die' a brand new solo exhibition from Spanish artist Ricardo Cavolo. This will also be the official UK launch for the book of the same title. The exhibition will showcase all 101 original artworks from the book and will open at Atomica Gallery in Soho, London, on Thursday 23rd April 2015. '101 Artists to Listen to Before You Die' offers a charming personal journey through music history. A die-hard music lover, Cavolo has painstakingly picked his 101 essential icons and expressed his adoration in the best way he knows how: creating beautifully illustrated hand-drawn portraits, accompanied by his own musings and hilarious anecdotes. Leaving few genres uncovered, current superstars Diplo and Kayne West play an equally integral part as much-loved legends Elvis Presley and Chuck Berry. Cavolo has also paid homage to plenty of unexpected surprises and underrated obscurities. Full list of artists below. "I did want to bring together 101 musicians and bands which, throughout my life and still today, have helped me in some way. We enjoy music, but we also use it. And this is what I want to show: what each artist gives me; the situations in which I listen to one or to another; how this group or that helps me to resolve problems. Yes, my musical diary." Ricardo Cavolo All 101 portraits featured in the exhibition will be made into small runs of limited edition prints exclusive to Atomica Gallery and signed & numbered by Ricardo Cavolo. They will be available to purchase on a first-come, first-served basis from the opening night at Atomica Gallery and will also be available to purchase online from Monday 27th April - get in quick to avoid disappointment!
