At last! The RICHARD AMSEL art retrospective!

[Adam McDaniel]

I'm happy to say that, coming this spring, the first public exhibit dedicated exclusively to the work of late RAIDERS illustrator Richard Amsel will be happening in Philadelphia!

This exhibit has been years in the making, and I'm happy to helping with it.

The Richard Amsel Retrospective
Presented by The University of the Arts and The Equality Forum
April 15 - May 14, 2009
Rosenwald-Wolf Gallery
The University of the Arts
333 South Broad Street
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA

More information will be available at www.richardamsel.com (the site is still in development).

In the meantime, updates and info can be found on my tribute site, www.richardamsel.info.

Thanks, and hope to see you there! Amsel's stuff is really amazing...and even more impressive when you see it in person.

Awesome! Thanks for the heads-up!:hat:

I'd love to see his stuff in person, so I'm just going to have to find the time to go to Philly!

It does make me wonder when we'll get a Struzan exhibit, and not just a small show, but a major retrospective of his work?

The University of the Arts in Philadelphia recently issued a press release about their upcoming Richard Amsel retrospective, and some never before published sketches are on their site -- including some of the artist's earliest sketches for the first RAIDERS poster!

I've added these to my own website, http://www.richardamsel.info.

You can see the RAIDERS-related work specifically on this page:

Hope you enjoy. I'll also be discussing more about the exhibit in an upcoming episode of the INDYCAST!

Can't wait to hear the Indy-cast with you talking Amsel- Adam. I have that Mad Max poster - didn't realize it was his last... used to have all of them hanging in my bedroom as a kid...

I'm also looking forward to hearing the interview. His TV Guide covers are some of my favourites. If Amsel's name was on the cover, I'd buy it!
