The Seattle Art Museum is planning an exhibit that will focus on Kurt Cobain in a way that few others have…through the art that he influenced.
The exhibit will be called ‘Kurt” and will “range from straightforward portraiture to pieces that show a more subtle assimilation of Cobain’s ethos and idealism in a broad range of media.”
That comes from Michael Darling, The Jon & Mary Shirley Curator of Modern & Contemporary Art…a man who likes his sentences as long and complex as his job title.

“Kurt” starts on May 13th and will be at SAM for 6 months.
A good chance to see it on the cheap is by checking out first Thursday, where SAM (and a number of others) opens it’s doors for free on the first thursday of every month.
