Since the early 90s, popular culture has increasingly mused about the “The 27 Club” (a title given to the group of musicians whose lives were interrupted at the age of 27). Whether we believe in coincidence, numerology or nonsense, an unsolvable mystery seems to bind the lives and deaths of these enigmatic figures. These art objects pay tribute – to Hendrix, Joplin, Basquiat, and others – in an attempt to explore and expose moody glimpses of the mythic personas who rest eternally in “Club 27.”
