Question: What do Sylvester Stallone, Paul McCartney, Frank Sinatra, and George Bush have in common?
Answer: In addition to their contributions to their various fields of Acting, Songwriting, Performance Arts, and Politics, they were also painters. For this Grand Opening, La Gallery has assembled some 113 paintings, landscapes, and Self-Portraits from the world’s most prominent celebrities and sports figures.
Not just the opening of La Gallery - a new public art gallery dedicated to all kinds of exhibitions and events: painting, sculpture, photography, design, performances, and soon to become known as the Gallery of Galleries in SecondLife - but also the Grid Premier of “Also Painters…”, the finest and most comprehensive collection of celebrity art to be found anywhere on the Grid
Lalle Vanbeeck and La Gallery have scoured the internet to bring you the collected works of some of your all-time favorite personalities. When why she created La Gallery, Vanbeeck responded:
“I read some time ago an article presenting some celebrities who were also painters. Hence the idea of this exhibition showing the works of these “unknown” painters such as Bob Dylan, David Bowie…and many others”
WHO: La Gallery presents “Also Painters”
WHAT: SL’s premier collection of paintings done by multi-disciplinary celebrities, in this exclusive exhibit of the collected works of RL celebrity artists
WHY: To inform the public of the multi-dimensional characteristics of some of your favorite stars.
WHEN: Grande Opening Friday, March 25, from 3:30 – 5:30 PM SLT. The exhibit runs from 25 Mar - 25 May 2022
