A group exhibition and a catalogue presenting interviews and works by twelve rockers: Alan Vega, Andy (Bluvertigo), Antony (Antony and the Johnsons), Bianca Casady (CocoRosie), Chicks on Speed, Devendra Banhart, Fischerspooner, Kyle Field, Patti Smith, Pete Doherty, The Kills, Herman Dune.
Rock and art are inextricably tied up, every artist shows his/her own formal language, for example the blood paintings by Pete Doherty, the black and white polaroids by Patti Smith, the collage by Antony. An exhibition whose first edition was held in Bruxelles in 2008, curated by the rockest one among all curators, Jérôme Sans, former Director of the Palais de Tokyo in Paris and actual Director of the Ullens Center for Contemporary Art in Beijing.
