As part of the SXSW festivities in Austin, Robert Rodriguez has opened up a gallery of Frank Frazetta artwork.  They asked for no pictures to be taken once I was inside the gallery, so unfortunately, I didn’t get any photos of the great original art.  Below is a copy of one of his prints (the original “Egyptian Queen” was on display and the colors and details were much better in person).  You can find more information at several places on the web, including the online Art History Museum.  The news is that Robert Rodriguez is planning to direct a live-action relaunch of “Fire and Ice”, the 1983 animated feature by Ralph Bakshi and Frank Frazetta.  I’m sure it will be filled with awesome creatures, kind of like the miniature creature that tried to attack me outside the venue.  🙂
