The Melt Gallery at Meltdown is proud to
present PHYSICAL NOSTALGIA, A group art showing that will serve as an
examination of Alan Moore and Dave Gibbon’s graphic novel WATCHMEN and
how the themes and images contained therein have permeated pop art
culture.

An artist’s reception party will take place on
Saturday, March 7, 2009 from 7:00 p.m. until 10:00 p.m. and is
sponsored by Asahi beer.

Curator Marz Richards says, “PHYSICAL
NOSTALGIA will exhibit a wild variety of art styles and media to
present facets of this seminal work that will be lost as WATCHMEN
transitions from the page to the silver screen. Now is the
last moment for the knot-tops and grizzled vigilantes of art to stand
up and show us what WATCHMEN means to them as the last five minutes of
the doomsday clock tick away.”

Exhibiting artists include Eldon Asp, Steven
Daily, Howard Hallis, Mack Hill, Jim Mahfood aka FOOD ONE, Kiyoshi
Nakazawa, Jeret Ochi, Osgood Perkins, Raymond Persi, Renfield, Fill
Marc Sagadraca, Christopher Stangl, Elan Trinidad with items from the
private collections of John Cogan and David Mandel.

The show will continue in exhibition from March 7 until Saturday, March 22 at the Melt Gallery.
