MUSIC & ART COLLIDE   Frankie Vinci's Rock 'n' Roll journey has led him to create the Pop Art he's so passionate about today. These raw-colorful Pop Art / Mixed Media pieces are reflective of his years as a troubadour and his Rock 'n' Roll experiences performing in the iconic clubs and concert halls from NYC to LA , all of this has become part of his tapestry as a Pop Artist.  Frankie is a Multi-Platinum songwriter / recording artist and has shared the stage and or worked in the recording studio alongside iconic names such as : Aerosmith, Van Halen, Alice Cooper, Meat Loaf, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Tim McGraw, Roberta Flack, Dino Danelli & Gene Cornish (Rascals), Wally Bryson (Raspberries), Ricky Byrd (Joan Jett, Roger Daltrey), Robert Lamm (Chicago), Phil Ramone, Eddie Kramer, etc...  Frankie's also had a successful career as a composer / producer in NYC advertising. He composed / produced national jingles for some of the biggest brand names internationally. A pinnacle of his career was composing The Super Bowl Theme for CBS that also aired on the "NFL Game of the week" for 10 years. Frankie's Pop Art is inspired by music, fashion, film and the vintage billboards that have been distressed by weather and time. The multi-layered backstage passes, concert posters covering the dark alleys and backstage walls in Rock clubs like CBGB's, all add fire to Frankie's creativity. Frankie's artful eye sees the beauty in subway graffiti, random paint drips, metal rust, torn paper, combined with detailed painting and carefully composed layouts. His flair for color combinations and the placement of iconic images over his canvases is creating a buzz in the art community.  With a name like Frankie Leonardo Vinci what else would you expect but a modern day renaissance man capturing his life and times on canvas.Mark your calendars for Frankie's  opening on 7/13/2023 , 6-9pm at D Colabella Fine Art Gallery , 446 Main Street , Ridgefield, Ct. , Check out my new pieces, including “FIRE” , a tribute to my favorite guitarist Jimi Hendrix . Also in the exhibit is the talented guitar craftsman Tim Sway and the amazing artist Greg Cohan. See you there !! Show runs until September 11!https://www.vincipopart.com/
