Dave MacDowell has taken it to the next level for this Thursday's 'Crazy4Cult 3D' show at Gallery 1988. He's combined a cult movie, with a cult artist AND a cult album cover. Shown above, his 'Willy Wonka and the Chocalate Factory' inspired piece pays homage to the amazing work of Robert Williams, that also happens to grace one of rock n' roll's greatest albums of all time (as well as being the influence for the album's title), Guns 'N Roses "Appetite For Destruction". View the original work here from Robert Williams, which was on view at this past December's Art Basel in Miami. A true grand slam of pop culture goodness from Mr. MacDowell for sure. So looking forward to having MacDowell back next year for a couple group shows and a proper follow up in early 2011. MacDowell is getting better and better, and continues to turn heads for good reason. Keep an eye on him and be sure to head out this Thursday, July 17th from 7-11PM to Gallery 1988 out on Melrose (at LaBrea) to catch this year's Crazy4Cult 3D.
