The gallery will be open to the public daily starting Saturday, March 14th – Saturday, March 21st from Noon – 8 pm. The museum is located at 920 Congress Ave. in Austin, TX. The gallery will have a $10 entrance fee benefiting the preservation of Frank Frazetta art.
The idea for the museum has been long in the making. Robert Rodriguez, along with the cooperation of the Frazetta family, has been touring Frank Frazetta original art at Comic Con and Wizard Con to continue the wish of Frank Frazetta, a friend and collaborator of Robert’s who always wanted audiences to see his paintings in person. The original Frazetta museum in upstate New York closed after the passing of Frank Frazetta in 2010. The new Rodriguez museum features other world class artists Robert has also worked with and studied under over the years, with art that he’s collected himself, and others that are on exclusive loan for this event.
The FRANK FRAZETTA COLLECTION has an unprecedented amount of original masterpieces including Death Dealer 2, Egyptian Queen, At the Earth’s Core, Conan Man Ape and Dark Kingdom, as well a rare original painting Frazetta did for the movie FROM DUSK TIL DAWN among others, 12 original masterpiece paintings total.
