The Daniel Johnston Show at 18 Hewett Street 12th April
To say we’re excited about hosting legendary singer, songwriter and visual artist Daniel Johnston’s UK solo exhibition at our 18 Hewett Street space is an understatement. Having been on our dream list for shows to put on since we opened 18 Hewett Street over a year ago, we are very proud to announce the opening of The Daniel Johnston Show on Thursday 12th April, 2012.
In the run up to his sold-out gig at the Union Chapel, we’ll be showcasing 20 original, never before exhibited pieces, including personal notebook sketches and full colour works. The Daniel Johnston Show is open from the 12th – 22nd April, with everything available for sale. The show is curated by Freddie Janssen and Helen Ralli.
For the opening night on Thursday 12th April, we’ve invited Let’s Wrestle and Dark Bells to play DJ sets, and we will be doing Daniel Johnston inspired burgers.
Check out the menu below:
Captain America: French Dip, Cheese Sauce, Homemade Pickle and Beef Patty Slider
Casper the Friendly Ghost: Pulled Pork and Kimchi Slider
Jeremiah The Innocent: Veggie Patty with Parmesan Crisp Slider
Thanks to our friends at Beck’s we’ll also have free beers! Doors open at 7pm, hopefully see you then.
Exhibition running Thursday 12th April – Sunday 22nd April
Opening Night Thursday 12th 7pm-10pm
