The Robert Thomas Project: It's Only Rock 'N' Roll

  • The Robert Thomas Project

    Cocktail Reception on February 15, 2025 | Cooper Street location
  • In his highly anticipated second show with Casterline/Goodman Gallery on Saturday, February 15th, The Robert Thomas Project takes viewers on a visual journey through the music that shaped his youth at the Jersey Shore, during the ‘80s and ‘90s. Featuring a dynamic collection of paintings inspired by the raw energy, rebellious spirit, and emotional depth of Rock ‘N’ Roll, the exhibition is both a tribute to the legends of the era and a deeply personal reflection on the artist’s formative years.

    Each piece captures the essence of the sounds that defined a generation—whether it’s the anthemic power of Led Zeppelin, the punk grit of the Ramones, or the electrifying presence of jazz legends like Miles Davis. Infused with bold colors, iconic typography, and a deep reverence for the music that shaped him, The Robert Thomas Project transforms sound into sight, inviting viewers to experience the backbeat of Rock ‘N’ Roll on canvas. This exhibition isn’t just about nostalgia—it’s a celebration of the timeless connection between music and art, proving that, even decades later, It’s Only Rock and Roll… but we like it.

    Robert Thomas is a visual artist currently working out of Bucks County, PA. Thomas's artistic work is varied and is presented in multiple mediums such as paintings, sculptures and videos. Graduating in 1997 from the School of Visual Arts began an editorial path that led to publications like Andy Warhol's Interview magazine, NylonThe New York Times magazine and Surfing magazine. This influence can be seen in his work with his use of type and reference to commercial art. The self-described “obsessive” about design and typography, Thomas uses bold colors and radical typefaces, evocative of early racing posters, and this body of work also acts as an homage to a culture which inspires the artist.
