Woolff Gallery is excited to present the ‘Sendo Senshi’ film poster and album launch featuring ‘White Dolemite’, and live music from Alessandro ‘Saseko’ Motojima’s QC197 Orchestra.

White Dolemite is the creation of digital artist Video Mat. A photographer and designer with a working history spanning some 20 years. Video Mat’s greatest passion in life had always been movies. An avid VHS collector since the video nasty days, and it was due to this collection that he earned his name.

Although it has always been Video Mat’s ambition to star in a movie himself, he understood that the chances of this actually happening were quite minimal. So, with this in mind, he put his photoshopping skills to the test and created a movie poster for himself. The results were shoddy at best, but the reaction to the posters were all that was needed to prompt Video Mat to have another go. And after a little thought, he arrived at a concept for a movie, toiled over a suitable title and decided on main character. Little did he know at the time that he was giving rise to White Dolemite... The “X” Rated Man.

6 years later, and White Dolemite, the original 1970’s movie star has now appeared in over 80 movie posters, all backed by his production company The Violent Movie Association. He has appeared on countless magazine covers including The Gentleman’s Enquirer and Hooker International. He has written an endless stream of novels and written and recorded the scores to many of his movies. In a nutshell, White Dolemite has grown into an empire through the creation artworks, soundtracks, trailers and clothing.
