   About the 9th Ward
The 9th Ward

A collective of musicians and multi-media artists, The 9th Ward writes records and performs blues-rock based songs that draw inspiration from the people, places and events of their immediate surroundings—Lawrenceville’s 9th Ward neighborhood. The band’s sound has been described as “Bob Dylan's "Subterranean Homesick Blues" manhandled by Cream, Blue Cheer or Led Zeppelin when they were still young and hungry."

The songs on this page are live recordings.

Los Angeles (AP) – Police announced the capture of the infamous Love Bandito today; however, they were forced to release the suspect when victims refused to testify and called for his release. A spokeswoman for the victims told prosecutors, “Please don’t take our Love Bandito away from us – we love him so very much.”

Wishful Thinking
Paintings by Victoria Cessna and David Wallace

Opening Friday, August 7, 2009. 6-10pm.
Zombo Gallery. 4900 Hatfield St., Pittsburgh, PA 15201
www.zomboworld.com
With live music by Slim and George Cessna with Rob Loveclutch.
Showing through Friday, August 28.

With great excitement and a touch of wise doubt, local painters Victoria Cessna and David Wallace present ‘Wishful Thinking’ at Zombo Gallery on August 7, showcasing works that were completed by the artists over the past year.

Both artists have an affinity for using found imagery from bygone eras as inspiration for their work.

Cessna’s paintings explore the mysterious allure of the random snapshot and capture the quality of a long-forgotten photograph in paint. Her work takes these photographs out of their original context and suggests that there is more than meets the eye in these seemingly tranquil domestic environments.

As a graphic designer, Wallace has always been interested in the power of images and words in advertising. The pairing of innocent, naïve images from mid-century home magazine ads with more modern, direct text create a more complex world than those ‘50s magazines imply. New meanings are derived and questions are posed. As in Cessna’s work, things are not always as they seem or as we wish they could be.

Just as the phrase ‘Wishful Thinking’ can either cheerfully conjure a joyful hope or sarcastically imply a skeptical doubt, the work of Cessna and Wallace explores the duality of meaning inherent within mundane, everyday imagery.

‘Wishful Thinking’ opens Friday, August 7 at Zombo Gallery in Lawrenceville and continues through August 28.
