Congratulations to Marsea on this huge accomplishment!!!

The 15 year anniversary party will serve as a retrospective show... a show of shows if you will. Many of the artists that have shown with New Image over the past 15 years are contributing to this special exhibit.

New Image will be showing videos and slide presentations and inviting some of their favorite past musical guests for live performances, dancing, and an all around good time.


Rich Jacobs and his friends are building a replica of the original New Image Art when it was upstairs and in only a 10 by 10 foot room. Rich will be driving down from SF and will be installing one of his curated 'Move' exhibits (see flier above) in this specially constructed space. Included in this special edition of the 'Move' series are works from Jodran Isip, Phil Frost, Thomas Campbell, Mofo, Tim Kerr, Melinda Beck and many more.
Judith Supine is making an 18 foot high 16 foot wide kinetic sculpture. Ed and Deanna Templeton are each doing photographic installations, Jose Parla is sending a piece in and Shepard's piece is off the hook (see above) plus a beautiful Eddie Martinez will be included in the show as well (see below). This one is not to be missed... it's like a who's who of the Beauitful Losers.

Looking for something else to do as well, be sure to check out our post below of this weekend's 'Recommended Openings'.
