Daniel Johnston
A prolific singer/songwriter, Daniel Johnston has released over
30 albums since 1981 and
has generated a huge cult following throughout his long career.
Amongst his fan base are
included such luminary musicians as Kurt Cobain, Sonic Youth,
and Tom Waits. Daniel was
the subject of the heart-wrenching and inspiring documentary,
"The Devil and Daniel
Johnston," released in 2005.
Daniel has exhibited his art in sold out shows across the globe.
His drawings are a pure
outpouring of emotion and symbolism, stemming from his vast imagination
and his ongoing
struggle against mental illness and manic depression. He is an
Icon.
Many of the drawings we are offering for sale were taken from
Daniel's personal High School
and College Notebooks. These pieces are a rare glimpse into the
artist's private world and
you are able to see beginning glimpses of many of the characters
and symbols that have
become fixtures within his art. Included, also, is what one Daniel
Johnston scholar
has cited to be the first sketch incarnation of Daniel's famous
"Hope Tree" painting that graces the cover of his "1990"
album.
