This world isn’t yet a reality, but it’s getting closer every day thanks to advancements in the field of rapid prototyping and 3-dimensional printing.

Is Celebrity Art Real or Reel by Joyce Schwarz Results of #Dylan poll in #CLE

In promoting the opening of celebrity Bob Dylan's exhibition of drawings at the Butler Art Institute in Youngstown, Ohio, Cleveland.com did a survey whether peeps reading the article thought the art was what Joyce Schwarz calls "real vs reel" meaning is it just vanity artwork or are the drawings really great.

See below, pix of artist Bob Dylan in his studio provided by the Butler Art Institute in Youngstown, Ohio 

So they asked: Can Bob Dylan draw?

And the results as of the morning of the opening of the Dylan Exhibit are seen in the graph below. They show that 47.36 percent of respondents thought "these are great drawings". Another 36.75 percent say "no these are mediocre and about 16 percent chose as their response "I need to see them in person to decide"............... 

At Hollywood2020, we like the drawings and in fact, we're working on a whole book on what else, "CELEBRITY ART" -- see our page on this at Facebook    like Celebrity Art Museum page on facebook

Hollywood2020 To Be On Location for Bob Dylan Exhibit Opening at Butler Institute of American Art

Hollywood2020 will be on location at an exhibition of pastel works by Bob Dylan opens May 17 at The Butler Institute of American Art in Youngstown, Ohio. The exhibition by the musician, titled “Face Value, was first seen at the National Portrait Gallery in London. It will be on display through July 12 in the museum’s Flora B. Giffuni Gallery. 

In announcing the exhibition, the Butler quoted Dylan as stating, “I’m pretty much interested in people, histories, myth, and portraits; people of all stripes.”

According to online resources Dylan's  philosophy is echoed in the portraits of ordinary, non celebrity, subjects included in Face Value, the museum said. The exhibition is “a part of Dylan’s life-long passion for creating in many formats — as singer/songwriter, author, film director, actor, radio broadcaster and visual artist.”

Among the solo art exhibitions by Dylan are the Drawn Blank Series, shown in Germany and London (2007-8), and the Brazil Series, shown at the National Gallery of Denmark (2010). The Asia Series and Revisionist Art: Thirty Works by Bob Dylan were presented at Gagosian Gallery in New York City in 2011 and 2013, respectively. Also in 2013, a group of oil paintings by Dylan, titled The New Orleans Series, were exhibited at the Palazzo Reale in Milan and the exhibition Face Value was seen at the National Portrait Gallery, London.

MORE INFO ON DYLAN AS AN ARTIST FROM WIKIPEDIA

 

Over a decade after Random House had published Drawn Blank (1994), a book of Dylan's drawings, The Drawn Blank Series opened in October 2007 at the Kunstsammlungen in Chemnitz, Germany.^[344] This first public exhibition of Dylan's paintings showcased more than 200 watercolors and gouaches made from the original drawings. The exhibition coincided with the publication of the book Bob Dylan: The Drawn Blank Series, which includes 170 reproductions from the series.^[344][345] From September 2010 until April 2011, the National Gallery of Denmark exhibited 40 large-scale acrylic paintings by Dylan, The Brazil Series.^[346]

In November 2013, the Halcyon Gallery, London, hosted an exhibition of seven wrought iron gates that Dylan had created. The exhibition was titled Mood Swings. In a statement released by the gallery, Dylan said: "I've been around iron all my life ever since I was a kid. I was born and raised in iron ore country, where you could breathe it and smell it every day. Gates appeal to me because of the negative space they allow. They can be closed but at the same time they allow the seasons and breezes to enter and flow. They can shut you out or shut you in. And in some ways there is no difference."^[355][356]

 

Since 1994, Dylan has published six books of painting and drawing.^[357]

 

Here is Dylan’s official biography, as provided by the Butler:

Born Robert Allen Zimmerman on 24 May 1941 in Duluth, Dylan grew up in Hibbing, Minnesota. He took the name of “Bob Dylan” in homage to the poet Dylan Thomas. His father was a Standard Oil Company worker and moved the family to Hibbing, Minnesota where Dylan taught himself to play the piano and guitar and formed several rock bands.

Dylan moved to New York in 1960 and quickly became immersed in the music world. The New York Times gave him a positive review for one of his performances in 1961, and thereafter Dylan was able to sign a recording contract with Columbia Records.

His first album was released in 1962, but it was the 1963 release of The Freewheelin Bob Dylan that marked Dylan as an original talent. (The album included Blowin’ in the Wind and A Hard Rain’s A-Gonna Fall.) Dylan’s next album, The Times They Are A-Changin secured his reputation as a music innovator.

Dylan tired of being type-cast as a folk-singer of the protest movement and, in 1964, he released the album Another Side of Bob Dylan, which was less politically motivated. Dylan continued to try new styles, and in 1965 Bringing It All Back Homewas released. Over the next three decades,he continued to reinvent himself, producing some of his most innovative work.

Dylan branched out into film, and in 1973 appeared in Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid. Music was the most memorable contribution Dylan made to the film with the sound track Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door.

In 1974, after having suffered a near-fatal motorcycle accident, Dylan released Planet Waves, his first number one album.Blood on the Tracks and Desire also reached number one status. In 1979, Dylan declared himself a born-again Christian, which inspired the song Slow Train, which won Dylan his first Grammy Award.

In 1989, Dylan was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and, in 1997 he became the first rock star ever to receive Kennedy Center Honors.

In 1997 the album,Time Out of Mind‘, won Dylan three Grammy Awards, including Album of the Year. In 2000, he recorded the single Things Have Changed‘, for the soundtrack of the film Wonder Boys’ which won Dylan a Golden Globe and an Academy Award for Best Original Song. This was followed by the album Love and Theft released on 11 September 2001 under the name Jack Frost. It was critically well received and earned Dylan several Grammy Award nominations.

Dylan returned to Christianity for his 2003 CD project Gotta Serve Somebody: The Gospel Songs of Bob Dylan. In that same year, he played the central character in the film Masked & Anonymous which also starred Jeff Bridges and Penelope Cruz. In 2004, he published the first installment of his autobiography titled Chronicles: Volume I which reached second on The New York Times best seller list. Dylan made an appearance in the Martin Scorsese-directed film biography about him, which first aired in 2005. The accompanying soundtrack to this film featured some unreleased songs from Dylan’s early career.

On 3 May 2006, hosted the weekly Theme Time Radio Hour. He recorded his 100th show in 2009 with the theme Goodbye. That same year, he released the album Modern Times which won two Grammy awards.

The award-winning film biography based on Dylan called I’m Not There starring Cate Blanchett, Heath Ledger and Richard Gere was released in 2007. Soon after, triple CD Dylan, which incorporated his entire musical career, was released.

His next album Together Through Life (2009) was followed by Christmas record Christmas in the Heart.

In 2010, Dylan was awarded the National Medal of Art by the United States Government, an honor that was presented by President Obama.

Dylan married Sara Lowndes in 1965. They had four children together, divorcing in 1977. He married Carolyn Dennis in 1986; the couple had a daughter, before they divorced in 1992.

Since 1994, Dylan has published six books of drawings and paintings, and his work has been exhibited in major art galleries. As a musician, Dylan has sold more than 100 million records, making him one of the best-selling artists of all time; he has receivednumerous awards including Grammy, Golden Globe and Academy Award; he has been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Minnesota Music Hall of Fame, Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame, and Songwriters Hall of Fame. The Pulitzer Prize jury in 2008 awarded him a special citation for "his profound impact on popular music and American culture, marked by lyrical compositions of extraordinary poetic power." In May 2012, Dylan received the Presidential Medal of Freedom from Barack Obama.

On October 28, 2014, Simon & Schuster published a massive 960 page, thirteen and a half pound edition of Dylan's lyrics, Lyrics: Since 1962. The book was edited by literary critic Christopher Ricks, Julie Nemrow and Lisa Nemrow, to offer variant versions of Dylan's songs, sourced from out-takes and live performances. A limited edition of 50 books, signed by Dylan, was priced at $5,000. "It’s the biggest, most expensive book we’ve ever published, as far as I know," said Jonathan Karp, Simon & Schuster’s president and publisher.^[314][315]
