7.20.13

Mermaid Tavern

Join us Saturday, July 20 at the award-winning Mermaid Tavern in Seminole Heights

for Diamond Life: A tribute to legendary artist Patrick Nagel, a fundraiser benefiting

Tempus Projects. Since 1974, when his work first achieved prominence in Playboy

magazine, the art of Patrick Nagel has been widely exhibited and collected. Best

known for his sultry illustrations, and album cover art for Duran Duran, Nagel’s iconic

images have become synonymous with the decadence of 1980s. Nagel died of a heart attack in 1984, at

the age of 38, after participating in a 15-minute celebrity "Aerobathon" to raise funds

for the American Heart Association. Nagel prints are exhibited for this one-night event

and available via silent auction. Limited edition Tempus/Nagel T-shirts, pin-back

buttons and totes are available for purchase, as well as your chance to win great 80’s

inspired gifts from our generous sponsors.
