Motor City Release Party
A Group Art Show and Release Party for Motor City, the Graphic Novel!
Saturday, March 8th 2008 7-10PM
Los Angeles – CA, Melt Gallery is proud to present GREASERS, GHOULS & GALS – a group art exhibition in connection with the release of the independent comic book graphic novel Motor City.
It will be an evening of ghoul-filled goodness as local area artists plus artists from Detroit, Denver, San Francisco and New York City come together for a group show celebrating rockabilly culture, psychobilly music, classic monsters, comic books, and the classic American pin-up girl. The evening is a release party, book signing and art show all in one!
GREASERS, GHOULS & GALS is an opportunity to view and purchase custom works by more than 20 artists working in various mediums such as paintings, prints, and photographs. It's also the first opportunity to purchase Motor City: Volume 1, and to get your copy signed by the illustrator and writer who will both be attending the event.
Motor City is a rockabilly monster manga published by Rebel Sidekick Studios. Motor City is written by Gavin Hignight (writer for the animated series Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Geek Magazine) and is the first full length graphic novel to be illustrated by emerging artist Jettila Lewis.
