Bob Dylan art going on show in London offers ‘windows into the life’ of a storyteller
London’s Halcyon Gallery to show 97 works by artist and musician Bob Dylan, inviting viewers to explore the profound stories he tells
Singer-songwriter Bob Dylan is showing a collection of his paintings that were created with “emotional resonance”.
The 83-year-old Dylan, who is also a Nobel Prize for Literature winner, will bring 97 of his original works to London’s Halcyon Gallery.
The solo show, “Bob Dylan – Point Blank”, which captures people playing instruments, couples, sportsmen and women, along with rooms and places, is based on original sketches created by Dylan between 2021 and 2022.
These drawings were then painted over with colours to create “living, breathing entities that have emotional resonance, colours used as weapons and mood setters, a means of storytelling”, Dylan says.
“The idea was not only to observe the human condition, but to throw myself into it with great urgency.”
