British artist Dave McKean—trust us, you know his work, including Neil Gaiman’s “Coraline” and Rolling Stones album covers— will be showing at the Billy Shire Fine Arts gallery in Culver City, with an opening reception on Saturday night. The show, “Nitrate and Kinogeists,” will display historically significant silent film posters, most of which have been thought lost, from the collection of Chicago-based antique and art dealer Century Guild, as well as McKean’s latest paintings from his current body of work, “Nitrate,” inspired by the silent era of cinema.
Billy Shire Fine Arts, Feb. 13, 7-10 p.m. “Nitrate and Kinogeists” runs through March 10.
