{ ANGELS DIE HARD: An Art Show of Imaginary Biker Gangs }

Angels Die Hard is a new art show opening today at the University Union Gallery at Sacramento State with an amazing lineup of artists - toy designers, street artists, illustrators, print makers, comic artists and on and on. Running from November 27 to December 14th, Angels Die Hard is an homage to the low budget biker films of the mid 20th Century. Artist Abe Lincoln Jr. has brought together an eclectic group of over 40 artists and designers for this show with the challenge for the artist to create an imaginary biker gang and then make a vest or jacket with the gang's name and insignia on the back to represent their fictional outlaws. Such a great idea! A partial list of noted artists participating in the show: Cupco!, The Little Friends of Printmaking, Steve 'Ribs' Weissmann, Huck Gee, S. Faustina, MCA of Evil Design, Mr. Pinks, What What, The Hiberts and Abe Lincoln Jr. The show runs from Nov. 27th - Dec. 14th at the University Union Gallery at Sacramento State. The opening for the show will be on Thursday Nov. 30th from 6 - 10pm, with live painting from Pure Evil, Mr Pinks, Mats!?! and Abe Lincoln Jr. from 6pm to 9pm. University Union Gallery at Sacramento State is located at 6000 J Street on the Sacramento State Campus in Sacramento CA.
