In addition to being a singer/songwriter, Joseph Arthur is also a visual artist. Recently the rising star has had his work on display at Brooklyn’s Museum of Modern Arthur , a gallery located in the city’s creative hub Dumbo. But rent problems have forced Arthur to close down his exhibition space, oddly enough around the release of his new album Temporary People. “I can't disclose details but let's just say, in the immortal words of Kenny Rogers, ‘You gotta know when to fold ‘em/Know when to walk away/Know when to run,” Arthur says. “And the big bad landlord is giving us the boot (We pay our rent but other things factor into this  Up and coming thriving metropolis known as Dumbo).”

Arthur will host a free reception for his final exhibit tomorrow, September 25. The guitarist is expected to perform with band at the event. Temporary People is also currently streaming on NPR.org and KEXP.
