Joshua Timmermans, the Austin, TX-based founder of Noble Visions LLC who serves as the touring photographer for Widespread Panic, has announced a live music fine art gallery exhibition set to take place during the band’s upcoming six-night residency in his home city. The free exhibition is set to run from Friday, April 14th through Tuesday, April 18th from 5:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. daily in the space above the famed Antone’s Nightclub, with an opening night reception due to take place on Friday, April 14th from 7:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m.
This specially curated exhibit will feature collectable fine art pieces presented on a variety of media including dye-infused metal prints; framed, stretched canvases as framed archival gallery prints; and a selection of limited edition gallery pieces from the Noble Visions archives. In addition to Widespread Panic, photo subjects to be featured in the gallery include a range of notable artists like Willie Nelson, Dolly Parton, The Rolling Stones, Gary Clark Jr., Sharon Jones, Trey Anastasio, Grace Potter, George Porter Jr., Bootsy Collins, Derek Trucks, Bob Weir, Leon Bridges, Gregg Allman, Keith Richards, Kenny Rogers, Jamey Johnson, Kris Kristofferson, and many more.
The Noble Visions gallery above Antone’s Nightclub will be open to the public for five nights coinciding with the first half of Widespread Panic’s six-night run at the Moody Theater. The exhibit will remain open for paying attendees at Antone’s throughout the following weekend. Timmermans will also hold a meet-and-greet at the exhibit on Saturday, April 15th prior to the start of the midnight George Porter Jr. show at Antone’s.
“Noble Visions is excited to partner with the legendary Antone’s Nightclub, and Widespread Panic, to present this fine art gallery and exhibit featuring icons of music,” said Timmermans of the gallery. “The exhibit is unique in that, not only does it feature images of Widespread Panic, it also features icons in music history that have helped shape the modern era of music in their respective genres.”

“I am stoked for the music community of Austin, as well as all the fans that will be in town for Widespread Panic residency at Moody Theater, to be able to check out this special curated collection of art,” the photographer continued. “I’ve captured most of these moments over a fifteen year portion of my professional career, and I am excited to finally share some of these pieces with the public for the very first time. Noble Visions wouldn’t be able to pull this off with out the partnership and support of our friends at Spaceflight Records, Interstellar Audio Machines, Widespread Panic, and most of all Antone’s Nightclub.”
