STEAK MTN. EXHIBIT THIS FRIDAY IN CHICAGO

Posted by Jason Pettigrew on 02-Apr-08 @ 08:11 PM

Steak Mtn. (aka Christopher Norris) you may remember from the noisecore outfit Combatwoundedveteran. We here are hoping you remember him from being featured in our Art Brutes special (AP 232), or for the sweet artwork he rendered for every song on Against Me!'s New Wave album. THE MOST EXPLOSIVE PICTURE OF THE YEAR!, a solo exhibition of Norris' new drawings is coming to The Threadless Gallery in Chicago from April 4th to April 29th, with an opening party on the 4th from 7pm to 9pm.

Attendees to the show will witness the unveiling of Steak Mtn.'s DECAPITATED DOOMSDAY, a long-time-coming, top secret, ultra limited-edition Threadless Select shirt dipped in the delight of ridiculous design. In addition, Steak Mtn. will be on hand for the opening with a limited three-color serigraph created specifically for the exhibit. If you can't make it to see the show, all of the work (minus the Scrapbook Wall Of Death) is online at http://www.steakmtn.com/explosive. Seriously though, get thine butt to Chicago and improve your weekend thricefold.
