Property from the estate of innovative musical genius Frank Zappa (1940-1993) and his trailblazer wife Gail will come up in a live and online auction at Julien’s Auctions next November 4. As a music composer, producer, director and guitarist Frank Zappa would fuse musical genres and incorporate diverse musical techniques and sounds, some often politically charged and intentionally shocking. Often described as a genius, Frank Zappa was undeniably one of the most innovative musicians of the 20th century. He led the sixties California freak movement, composed classical compositions throughout his career, was a hero of free speech and spoke out against censorship often in public. In 1967, Frank married Gail Zappa and purchased a home in Laurel Canyon in Los Angeles. During the Zappas’ decades of touring the globe, they amassed a collection of exotic furnishings, fine antiques, salvaged architectural pieces, unique collectibles and whimsical items that appealed to their panache for colorful and non-conformist eye. The auction will include many of the personal treasures that found their home at the fabled compound in California.
