Let's Rock - The Art of Zacron - December 2008 - April 2009 City Inn Birmingham
A vast and varied body of work by Zacron spanning 5 decades. This exhibition
offers a glimpse into the multi-sided and multi-talented Zacron celebrating his
robust ethos of independance, bravery and lifelong quest for knowlege.
The success of the album cover stems from Zacron's vigorous creative spirit and
creative process, it is absolutely apt that Zacron's work has a close association to
rock and roll. He is fearless in his approach and driven to communicate his
assertions. His art makes attempts at unifying human experience and making a
splintered world whole. He is an advocate and activist promoting the transformative
qualities of art. His work tells stories about human life often through symbols.
His compositions often embody the wonderful quality of looking both ancient and
futuristic simultaneously.
He writes 'Ultimately, art impels us towards a whole-world consciousness.
By extending beyond the self, art has the capacity to be a spiritual diviner.'
Rather unique to his generation Zacron has whole-heartily embraced new media
regarding it as an exceptional tool not to be ignored. His creativity and curiosity has
taken him into many territories and he is truly multi-diciplinary. He has made prolific
forays into sculpture, philosophy, cosmology, critical writing, campaigning for freedom
of expression and entrepreneurialism.
We are privilaghed to have a rich and varied exhibition from such a rich and varied
individual. My thanks to Lee Benson of Number Nine the Gallery in Brindleyplace for
making the introduction to Zacron.
