Norm Bendell's "Chopin the Rock Star"

NORM BENDELL takes us back in time with this brand-new conceptual illustration...to a time way before electric guitar-wiz idolatry and recording studio magicians concocted any sound imaginable electronically. A time when Kings+Queens and others of great wealth and societal stature were commissioning artists and composers. In Bendell's words: "We're bringing Chopin's work up to date, after all...he was a rock star in his day. We can't help but wonder if the fanatical young women in his audience screamed and threw their bloomers and corsets at him and his French Poodle, George." In this rare use of collage, Bendell's usual brilliant sense of humor and (he-makes-it-look-so-easy) water-coloring immediately captivates viewers like you.
Hence why his particular cartoon style has been tied into countless major ad campaigns and marketing success stories and focus groups find his style irresistible. www.normbendell.com Proudly represented since 1983 by DGA: Inquiries: dg@davidgoldmanagency.com #illustration #humor #humorousart #humorousillustration #cartoonart #cartoonillustration #sophisticatedhumor #legendaryartist #chopin #classicalmusic #musicnotes #sheetmusc #notatedmusic #musicalcomposition #newyorker The Newyorker Oberlin College Chopin University of Music The New York Times Custom Content from WSJ WQXR Radio Variety EMI Music Sony Music Entertainment Universal Music Group
