More paintings at his Gallery with great soundtrack from John Lurie’s Strange and Beautiful homepage

John Lurie has been ill for the last many years. He has been exhibiting and selling his paintings. (These paintings have saved his life)

John is an excellent dancer

M: People are most familiar with your work as a musician and actor/director. How did you make the leap to visual artist?
JL: I believe you have me mistaken with someone else. I am mostly known for being an excellent dancer, in some neighbourhoods more than others.
