Quentin vs. Coen: An Art Show Tribute | SF

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Quentin vs Coen, an art show tribute to the films of Tarantino and the Coen Brothers, will have its opening night reception at Spoke Art from 6-10 pm on July 5, 2014. The show will be on view until July 26, 2014.

There is no cover charge, complimentary beverages will be served, and some artists will be in attendance.

Over 60 artists were invited to reinterpret their favorite scenes, characters and films from the prolific directors, resulting in an eclectic showing of inspirational fine art. Showcasing a plethora of original works from painting and sculpture to limited edition screen prints and digital works, Quentin vs Coen demonstrates a wide range of mediums and practices.

Although Tarantino and the Coen brothers differ heavily in their directorial styles, artistically they both have an aptitude for overlapping themes. Both gravitate towards potent, film-defining soundtracks; both fabricate their own versions of neo-noir dark humor. Their penchant for ample brutal violence and bizarre story lines complement their overarching topics of American culture, revenge and fate as well as classic Hollywood narratives.
