"Ronald Reagan & His Monkey" Modern Art Music Movement Maverick Artist V...

The Maverick Artist Victor-Hugo Vaca Jr. returns to The Sidney & Berne Davis Art Center, Fort Myers, for the February 25th All Star Jam, where, as captured in this 2009 video by Lily Hatchett , Vaca captivated the audiences @ "The Global Warming Art Report" as he created his largest canvas piece to date: "Ronald Reagan & His Monkey". Over 12 feet high, this enormous piece had to be cut in three to transport. Creator of "Modern Art Gonzo Journalism", Vaca's social commentary is as valid today as it was then. Using his medium of communicating through his paintings, the audience will fuel The Maverick Artist with their energy fused with the musical vibes of the All Star group. Be part of this unique event and personally witness the messages underlying the beautiful finished piece. In his inimitable style, Vaca sometimes shocks with messages he paints on the blank canvas opening the show which mesmerize the audience as he blends and paints current affairs and vital topics into his Contemporary Abstract Art.

Performing live onstage with music greats such as Doug Bell of The Bellevue Cadillacs, Jeff "Skunk" Baxter, formerly of The Doobie Brothers and Steely Dan, Barry Goudreau and Fran Sheehan of Boston, Kenny Aronoff of the Smashing Pumpkins, members of The James Brown Experience, The Wailers and others.
