After hitting up Los Angeles in 2011 and earlier this year, British artist D*Face (interviewed) will be bringing his imagery back to Hollywood later this month. Scars & Stripes will open on September 27th at a popup location (315 S. Robertson Blvd) and will feature 30 large scale portraits, sculptures, and installations both inside and outside the gallery space along with two new murals in LA and limited edition prints. The new work will speak to fragility of life and the stereotypes of the “American Dream,” featuring some actors, celebrities, and musicians like Kurt Cobain, Jimi Hendrix, Biggie Smalls, and Tupac who all died young. Make sure you RSVP if you plan on attending and for now we leave you with photos of a billboard promoting the show…
