Joe Satriani, the legendary world-renowned guitarist, is planning his first foray as a touring visual artist with showings debuting at two Wentworth Gallery locations in January, 2022 – specifically, Friday January 28, 7-10 pm at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, FL and Saturday January 29, 5-8 pm at the Boca Raton location. Satriani has prepared one of a kind pieces for the exhibit including original canvases and hand painted guitars.
Satriani will be releasing new music in 2022 and has announced a rescheduled world tour, but first he heads to South Florida for a celebration of his visual art.
“Joe is a master storyteller. Just as his music draws in the listener, his art draws in the viewer. His artwork is emotional, imaginative, and fantastic. Not only do you see the universe through Joe’s eyes, but you also contemplate our place in it.” – Christian O’Mahony, Principal Wentworth Gallery
ARTIST’S STATEMENT
Music and art are my passions. I like making the invisible, visible, and the unimaginable, real. The image on a canvas, or, an electric guitar for that matter, can make you feel something unexpected and revealing, something that is the beginning of a greater personal insight. Challenging the straight line and the concepts of what belongs with what excites me. I want to experience new color combinations to make me see beyond the prevailing reality. There’s a balance between seriousness and humor that can imbue in a painting a kind of resilience and longevity, making it forever contemporary. When I paint and play my guitar, I strive to be in a state of exhilaration and communicate that feeling to my fans. – Joe Satriani
