Rip Kastaris, Returns to Gateway Gallery as a Guest Artist, January 5, 2013 – February 15.


GATEWAY GALLERY IN CLAYTON PRESENTS “Room with a View”, January 5, 2013 – February 15.

Guest artist, Rip Kastaris, will exhibit “The Art of Blues” as a Gateway Gallery guest artist January 5, 2013 through February 15, 2013.   As a veteran illustrator, designer and video editor, Rip uses all his skills to help bring visual gravity to the work of so many great talents on the St. Louis Blues scene.  Rip has created images for the rock star Sting, produced official art of four consecutive Olympic Games and painted the four-story Steamboat Mural on the Great River Road in Alton, IL  but his passion for the last two years has been the art of Blues music. Live music has turned into musical art full of life. You can feel the rhythms and harmonies in his blues, reds and yellows. He draws the music as well as the musicians in impressions he sketches and paints from life and in the studio. Come see the first time exhibition of his newest work. It will move you just like the music it comes from.
