The Bob Dylan Center has announced that it will present a new exhibition featuring a rare collection of the music icon’s visual works. The exhibition, titled “Bob Dylan: Face Value and Beyond,” will begin on May 10 at Tulsa, Oklahoma’s acclaimed Gilcrease Museum. Curated by The Bob Dylan Archive, the exhibition will include the first regional showing of Dylan’s renowned “Face Value” portrait series, as well as drawings, filmed performances, writings, personal effects and ephemera exclusive to The Archive. The exhibition will also feature archival manuscripts and objects exclusive to The Bob Dylan Archive, including hand-written lyrics to some of the artist’s best-known songs that reveal a glimpse into Dylan’s creative process through many visible edits. One of the most important cultural figures of our time, Dylan has been creating visual art since the 1960s but only began exhibiting his work publicly in 2007. Copyright(c) 2019 RTTNews.com.
