Ron Wood's Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame Art Show Opens
Sun Oct 13, 4:57 PM ET
(10/13/02, 7 a.m. ET) -- Rolling Stones guitarist Ron Wood's art exhibition opens to the public Monday (October 14) at the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame And Museum in Cleveland. The exhibition, which was previewed at a special members-only reception on Sunday (October 13), features 25 of Wood's sketches, focusing on Rolling Stones-oriented works such as "Sympathy For The Devil," "Stones In Sepia," and "Slide On This," and two of the pieces--"Study Of Mick" and "Study Of Keith"--have never been displayed before in the U.S.
The exhibition will also tour artifacts that belonged to the Stones' late crew chief, Roydon Walter "Chuch" Magee, who suffered a fatal heart attack at a rehearsal on July 18.
Wood tells LAUNCH that one part of the display in particular should be of extreme interest to Rolling Stones fans. "There's lots of Stones setlists that we did from Toronto. Me and Keith (Richards)--I wrote the bulk of it, and Keith added silly things, you know, here and there, and I did some drawings on them. But the basic thing to the hardcore Stones fan is a day-by-day breakdown of which numbers we rehearsed that day. It could be, 'I'm a hog for you, baby,' or something like that, you know, just thrown in amongst the weird sort of 'Stray Cat Blues'-es and stuff."
Prints of Wood's works are being sold at the Cleveland galleries ArtMetro and Art Rocks.
The Rolling Stones' Licks tour continues Monday (October 14) at Cleveland's Gund Arena.
