Such is the case with the limited edition gig poster for the event featuring "1919" and "Pelican Tombs" held at the Theatre of Living Arts in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on June 3rd, 2009. This striking piece of street pop art and graffiti artwork is a celebration of both the bands and the evocative power of graphic design within the realm of music. This limited edition gig poster is more than just a promotional tool; it is a collectible artwork that reflects the vibrancy and raw energy of the musical acts it represents. Created by the artist Justin Anville, the print is a four-color, hand-pulled silkscreen on fine art paper, a technique that lends the artwork a tactile quality that is both immediate and engaging. The choice of silkscreen printing, a favored method in both street art and pop art for its bold colors and sharp lines, allows the piece to stand out with a visual pop that mirrors the intensity of the live music experience. Visual Elements and Artistic Significance The artwork commands attention with its intricate design and contrasting color palette, which features a dominant red against a backdrop of more subdued tones. At the center, the stylized numerals "1919" are prominently displayed, intertwined with symbolic imagery that suggests a narrative extending beyond the bands' names. This typographic treatment is reminiscent of graffiti art, where letters become an integral part of the visual impact, often carrying meaning in their form as much as in their content. Cultural Imprint of the 2009 Event Poster Limited to a signed and numbered edition, the poster carries with it an aura of exclusivity. Measuring 18x24 inches, it is a sizable piece that was designed to be noticed, to be a talking point, and ultimately, to be remembered. As a piece of memorabilia, it serves as a timestamp, capturing the cultural zeitgeist of the late 2000s Philadelphia music scene, a period marked by a resurgence in indie and alternative genres. The inclusion of the Live Nation brand also signifies the commercial and mainstream acknowledgment of the genres and bands, hinting at their movement from the fringes into the spotlight. The Legacy of Gig Posters in Street Pop Art The significance of gig posters like this one extends beyond the night of the event itself. They are artifacts of cultural history, capturing the essence of musical movements and the artistic styles that accompany them. In the broader context of street pop art and graffiti artwork, gig posters are often the crossroads where music and visual art fans meet, share, and appreciate the interplay between these forms of expression. This particular poster, with its bold aesthetic and connection to a specific time and place, is a perfect illustration of how street art and music can come together to create something enduring. In the ever-evolving dialogue between music and visual arts, the 2009 limited edition gig poster for "1919" and "Pelican Tombs" stands as a testament to the power of this collaboration. It is not just a promotional item; it is a snapshot of a scene, a piece of street pop art, and a collectible that holds within its inks and paper the echoes of a night of music and the spirit of its time.

Shepard Fairey (b. 1970) Dirty South Dance, 2007 Screenprint in colors on speckled cream paper 24 x 18 inches (61 x 45.7 cm) (sheet) Ed. 300 Signed, numbered, and dated in pencil along lower edge Published by Obey Giant, Los Angeles Dirty South Dance Silkscreen Print is a piece of artwork created by Shepard Fairey, the American contemporary street artist, graphic designer, and activist best known for his "OBEY Giant" and Barack Obama "HOPE" campaigns. Fairey's artwork is often characterized by its bold and thought-provoking imagery, combining elements of graffiti, pop art, and political activism. The Dirty South Dance Silkscreen Print is part of Fairey's OBEY series, which is derived from the "OBEY Giant" sticker campaign he started in 1989. The series aims to promote critical thinking and question societal norms, government control, and the influence of media and advertising on our lives. The Dirty South Dance print may feature Fairey's signature style, including bold colors, striking design elements, and a mix of typography and imagery. The piece may focus on the "Dirty South" music scene, which refers to a subgenre of hip-hop that originated in the southern United States, particularly in cities like Atlanta, Houston, and New Orleans. The artwork may attempt to capture the spirit of the music, its artists, and the culture surrounding it while also incorporating Fairey's sociopolitical messages. As a silkscreen print, the Dirty South Dance artwork would have been created using a stencil-based printmaking technique in which ink is pushed through a mesh screen to transfer the design onto paper or canvas. This process allows for the production of multiple copies, each considered an original print, and is a popular method for creating street art and posters. Collectors and fans of Shepard Fairey's work may be interested in acquiring the Dirty South Dance Silkscreen Print for its unique design and strong cultural commentary.

AP Artist Proof 2009 Signed & Marked AP Limited Edition Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print. Flowers Growing on Vines in a Luxury Stylized Pattern. In the landscape of contemporary art, Shepard Fairey's influence is significant, especially when considering the intersection of pop culture and art activism. His "Flower Vine Black Red AP" silkscreen print exemplifies the fusion of aesthetic allure and cultural commentary. This Artist Proof, dated 2009, presents a vibrant juxtaposition of black floral and vine patterns against a striking red background. Hand-pulled on cream speckle tone fine art paper, each piece in this limited edition is signed and marked by Fairey, adding a dimension of exclusivity and authenticity. The artwork measures 18x24 inches, a size that allows the intricate details and the boldness of the colors to stand out, making a statement that is visually arresting. The use of just two colors in the print showcases Fairey's mastery of the silkscreen technique, where the limited palette enhances the work's graphic strength rather than diminishes its complexity. The pattern of flowers growing on vines carries a dual symbolism; it reflects growth and natural beauty while alluding to the intertwining of nature with human civilization, a theme often revisited in street and graffiti art. Fairey, widely recognized for his OBEY campaign and the iconic Barack Obama "Hope" poster, often infuses his work with socio-political undertones.

As a leading figure in the street art movement, Fairey's work challenges viewers to reinterpret familiar visual elements in new and thought-provoking ways. This print, as with much of Fairey's work, is more than just a decorative piece; it is a commentary embedded in the medium of pop art.

Sized at 32x32 inches, the artwork offers a generous canvas for the artist's playful yet subversive vision. Buff Monster's work is renowned for its vibrant use of color and whimsical characters, often inspired by the melting landscapes of ice creams and the imagined worlds they inhabit. In "Slippery Sundae," the artist employs a one-color silkscreen process on Bright Moab Entrada Fine Art Paper, which allows for a high level of detail and a rich, tactile texture. This particular paper is chosen for its ability to capture the vividness of the pink hues and the graphic contrast of the grayscale elements, which are a signature feature in Buff Monster's art. Giclée printing also ensures that each piece is reproduced with precision, capturing every nuance of the original work. This artwork reflects Buff Monster's fascination with the juxtaposition of the bright and the gloomy, the sweet and the unsettling. It's a theme that resonates throughout his oeuvre, manifesting in the bubblegum-pink tsunami engulfing the cheerfully oblivious characters. With this piece, Buff Monster makes a statement about indulgence and the often-overlooked consequences of excess, packaged in a deceptively cute and digestible visual format. "Slippery Sundae" is not only a captivating addition to any pop art collection but also a reflection of the permeating influence of street art within modern visual culture. Through this limited edition print, Buff Monster bridges his street art beginnings with the exclusivity of fine art, allowing art collectors and enthusiasts to own a piece of this crossover.

Little known fact: the date on the poster is wrong (should be 2010) but nobody, to this day, has ever noticed or said anything about it... The posters were only available at the show the night of the event and we're selling the remaining copies here on the Dance Right store.

St Marks Horses Large Format Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled 2-Color on 260gsm Modigliani Suede Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Pop Street Art Artwork. 2009 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 250 Artwork Size 32.3x26.8 Silkscreen Print In 2009, while attending the 53rd Venice Biennale, Shepard Fairey crafted a limited edition print titled "St. Mark's Horses." The creation of this piece took place during the artist's time in Venice. It was made in collaboration with SMS Venice, an organization dedicated to supporting the city's artistic and architectural heritage. This exclusive print consists of 250 editions, each individually signed and numbered by Fairey. Fairey's works are produced in limited edition series, and owning a signed and numbered print can be a valuable addition to any art collection. His unique style and powerful messages have made him one of his generation's most influential street artists. The St. Marks Horses print features Fairey's iconic style, incorporating propaganda, counterculture, and street art elements. The artwork is centered around the depiction of two horses with a St. Mark's reference, which is likely inspired by the Horses of Saint Mark or the Triumphal Quadriga, a set of Roman bronze statues of four horses that were once part of a monument erected in Constantinople and are now located in Venice, Italy.
