This is the final week to experience the landmark art exhibition featuring original fine art by Chuck D inspired by his heroes, legends and peers that serves as a visual deep dive into society and culture. Known worldwide as the founder of Public Enemy, Chuck D ignited a movement with his politically charged lyrics and remains one of the most influential figures in contemporary music.
Presented by KAF and XYION with Soul Kitchen and curated by Lorrie Boula and St. Louis native Adrian Miller, ‘Roll Call: Most of My Heroes Don’t Appear on No Stamps’ includes standout pieces such as a pair of diptychs: “Black Legends,” which features portraits of Harry Belafonte and Nina Simone presented in mixed media, and “Public Enemy Number One,” featuring a self-portrait of Chuck D alongside his longtime collaborator Flavor Flav.
These and other works by Chuck D are on view and available for sale at Legends Gallery and on the gallery website through Wednesday, November 12. Legends’ Gallery, located at 3318 Washington Ave. is open Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
