Premiering in March is the punk art and music exhibit Wheelchair Epidemic at the Gallery Lombardi in Austin, Texas. The exhibit’s namesake is a throwback to the punk of yore, in honor of Texan hardcore punk pioneers The Dicks. Featured are works by Win Wallace (drawings), Tim Kerr (mixed media), Brian Curley (drawings and paintings), Susan Antone (photography), Bill Daniels (photography), Ian Schults, and artwork by The Dicks members Gary Floyd and Buxf Parrot.
Wheelchair Epidemic is a retrospective on the impact of music in the lives of the artists, who coincidentally all happen to be musicians. The artists and their respective bands will be performing an all ages show on the 13th of March at Gallery Lombardi.
