Never Before Seen Kurt Cobain Art

Two never-before-exhibited paintings by Kurt Cobain will be on display at the Seattle Art Fair, from Aug. 3 through Aug. 6. Sort of homecoming, with Cobain’s artwork returning to the city he helped put on the map culturally. “He was born near there, he passed away there, and he created the soundtrack for a counterculture there,” said Joshua Roth, the director for United Talent Agency Fine Arts.
Having long represented Cobain’s widow, Courtney Love, United Talent Agency gained representation of the estate last year for what Mr. Roth describes as an “agencywide collaboration.” While one team at United Talent Agency is working to develop a feature-length motion picture about Kurt Cobain’s life, Mr. Roth is planning to “create a touring exhibition that really tells the story of who Kurt was through artworks, personal artifacts and memorabilia, sort of like what the Rolling Stones did in London.” (MORE HERE)
