STRUCTURAL JAM: IT'S ALL LEAD GUITAR WHEN PROG ROCK RULED
THE EARTH
MASATO TAKASAKA
MARCH 23 - APRIL 14, 2007
Flamboyant 80’s rock guitar virtuoso Steve Vai provides the soundtrack for Masato Takasaka’s work in Structural jam: It’s all lead guitar when prog rock ruled the earth. Whilst the six texta drawings in this exhibition ignore the indulgent technical perfection of the genre, they could easily sit as posters for Vai’s music. They are the primitive constructions - they have rock colours, but with a folk – hand touch.
