About Guggi
There are at least two artists named Guggi: 1) Guggi (born Derek Rowan) is an avante-garde Irish artist, once a member of the goth/post-punk band The Virgin Prunes alongside his close friend Gavin Friday. Guggi grew up and remains best friends with U2's Bono. In 1984 he left the Virgin Prunes to pursue his passion for art. Since then he has exhibited his minimalistic paintings, representations of bowls and vessels, in various galleries, among which the Tony Shafrazi Gallery in New York, the Osborne Samuel Gallery in London and the Solomon Gallery in Dublin. He is the older brother of Peter Rowan, a photographer who as a child appeared on many of U2's release covers, and Johnny Rowan, a musician. He lives in Dublin with his wife Sibylle and their four sons. 2) Born in 1980 in athens, Guggi grows up to create his own world of analogue and experimental sounds mixed with elements of greek music of the century. Theatrical mood Vs Cabaret Discopunk decay becomes his attitude. For more information and music check at: http://www.myspace.com/casasusanna
