The Gallery

Theo Casamegas was one of the first people to move in to Freewheelin House. He is an artist and he has a special notion about Bob Dylan. Theo considers that you can place Dylan’s art against the art of any of the greatest artists who have ever lived and it would favour in comparison. In his lifelong pursuit of endeavouring to attach some kind of proof to his notion, Theo adopts the works of the great artists as a backdrop to images of Dylan. In the Gallery you will find the 38 covers that Theo designed for Freewheelin and below you will also find the names of the artists (together with other luminaries) who appear in these covers. If you click on the name of the artist or luminary it will take you to the cover and if you want to read more about the picture then Theo has provided an explanation under each study. You may be interested to note that the works of Pablo Picasso appear on 6 covers and that is much more than any other artist featured. Are you trying to tell us something Theo?
