... the place is inspired by the deeply strange Club Silencio in Mulholland Drive. Everything from the toilet bowls – black on black – to the saltiness of the nuts on the bar was decided on by the master himself. He even created the 1950s-inspired furniture, the chairs designed to "induce and sustain a specific state of alertness and openness to the unknown".
This is Lynch's answer to Warhol's Factory, the existentialists' Café Flore, the dadaists' Cabaret Voltaire.

Lynch studied some architecture and art at Philadelphia. Academy of Art. He met his ex-wife artist Peggy Reavey there and one can see the mutual inspirations especially the dream/nightmare qualities. Peggy Reavey's work is part of a group show now in San Pedro curated by Ron Linden and is up until sept 24, 2011.

If you like Lynch you may like her work.
The same Ron Linden also curated Coy Howard's HAND TO MOUTH exhibit at the Harbor College later shown at SCI-Arc
