About The Artwork

DARKNESS ON THE EDGE OF TOWN Darkness on the Edge of Town, was a 1978 album by Bruce Springsteen. It came after 3 years of legal entanglements and was the follow up to Bruce's breakthrough album "Born to Run". Unlike its' predecessor, Darkness did not contain the youthful exuberance and joy of Born to Run's vibe but was instead a mature, frightening, and utterly sobering look at life in the backwaters and small towns (which Springsteen knew so well) of America. And like other albums set in an alien or exotic landscape (think the Door's "Strange Days") its' themes of struggle and possible redemption ring true from the day it was recorded to now. The edge of town is where the downtrodden, addicted and overlooked meet. Like a border town or Pleasure Island and its' Donkey inhabitants from "Pinocchio". It's a place where it may seem you are free to do anything you desire but the edge of the cliff, and its' grave consequences, are always near and final. Mature Rock n' Roll may seem to be an oxymoron, but Springsteen truly made it a reality. Both dark and beautiful and timeless, at the same time. Surreallascapes: Each Collage is made up of at least 40 different pictures arranged in a landscape where the physical world is real, but the essence is of an alternate dimension. Or a Jigsaw puzzle where the pieces are made to fit together in a dreamlike manner. This will be offered as a signed and numbered print, limited to an edition of 25. Made from 100% rag paper, the 18" X 25" prints include a one-inch border.
