The event includes two days of personal appearances by Simmons
Gene Simmons has pushed the debut of The Gene Simmons ArtWorks in Las Vegas back by a week due to rescheduled KISS tour dates. Simmons and Paul Stanley each contracted COVID last month and were forced to push several North American End of the Road Tour dates back. As a result, the highly anticipated Gene Simmons ArtWorks debut in Las Vegas has moved to October 21-23.
The debut will take place at Animazing Gallery at Grand Canal Shoppes at The Venetian Resort will feature a private VIP event for art collectors and celebrities on October 21st, followed by two days of public showings with personal appearances by Simmons from 3-5 pm and 7-9 pm on October 22nd and 23rd.
The gallery showing will include a broad variety of artwork by Simmons – from sketches and drawings to small and large format paintings. Simmons finds inspiration from such artists as Jackson Pollack, with many of his newest works embracing Pollack’s action painting style with large format canvases on the floor, and Andy Warhol as a leading figure in the pop art movement.
After a mandated 10 day quarantine, the final KISS tour restarts in Irvine, CA tonight (Thurs, Sept 9th) and now runs through October 17th in Dayton, OH.
Following the trek, the group will return to Las Vegas for an exclusive engagement at Zappos Theater at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino, kicking off New Year’s Eve week with performances Wednesday, December 29th, Friday, December 31st and Saturday, January 1st. Additional shows are scheduled for January 19 – February 5, 2022.
Simmons was a recent guest on The Music Universe Podcast.
