Graphic artist and sculptor Helmut King has produced a number of Zappa inspired works.
In 2000, he released an art box entitled "I'm The Indian Of The Group" (a tribute to Jimmy Carl Black). The box included a pair of drum sticks (signed by Jimmy Carl Black, a CD-Rom with a.o. 4 songs and an interview with Jimmy Carl Black, 10 silkscreen prints by Helmut King, and a letter by Urban Gwerder.

The box and all of the artwork were a part of the 2009 Jimmy Carl Black exhibition in Bad Doberan, as part of the Zappanale festival.
Last year, Helmut King released a DVDR that included a documentary on the 2000 art exhibit, concert & presentation of his Jimmy Carl Black tribute. It's a beautiful item (another fine RR Production) and includes a fine bunch of extras.
Below is a screenshot from the documentary: Mothers' roadie Kanzus J. Kanzus and Urban Gwerder at the art exhibit!
The last copies of the box are still for sale. Please contact Helmut Jing directly or send me an email.
